A review by kttylatte
The Silence of the Girls by Pat Barker

adventurous emotional reflective sad tense

4.25

i can’t put into words how beautiful yet saddening this book was. barker manages to write in such an amazing way, and directly speaks to the audience too which i love. because of her writing, i felt sympathy for achilles, even after reading about how much of a horror he was. there’s nothing more i love than a retelling of a greek myth from the perspective of a woman!
