A review by lexlibris
The Women of Troy by Pat Barker

challenging dark emotional sad tense medium-paced
  • Plot- or character-driven? A mix
  • Strong character development? It's complicated
  • Loveable characters? It's complicated
  • Flaws of characters a main focus? It's complicated

3.5

I love any Greek myth novel but this one was definitely difficult & didn’t really say much besides how awful it was to be a Trojan woman after the fall of Troy. Which was very difficult to read through.
