Summary

Vigorous new life is breathed into the myth's of Homer's Iliad in Lindsay Clarke's new dramatic retelling of the wars fought for the Bronze Age City of Troy.

Bringing ancient myth to life with passion, humour and humanity, Lindsay Clarke vividly retells the story of Troy and of the heroes who fought there.

Enraged by the betrayal of Helen and Paris, Menelaus and his brother, the High King Agamemnon, gather their allies and set out to conquer the city of Troy.

Aboard their ships and behind the city’s walls are figures whose names and deeds echo through history - the wily strategist Odysseus, the Trojan champion Hector and the fiercely proud, impetuous warrior Achilles.

Critic reviews

"An engaging retelling of the whole story, neatly blending mythic archaism with modern psychodrama and satire." (Mary Beard) 

"Wonderfully clear and dramatic." (The Observer)
