In 'The Women of Troy', Pat Barker continues her extraordinary retelling of one of our greatest classical myths, following on from the critically acclaimed 'The Silence of the Girls'. Troy has fallen and the Greeks have won their bitter war. They can return home as victors - all they need is a good wind to lift their sails. But the wind has vanished, the seas becalmed by vengeful gods, and so the warriors remain in limbo - camped in the shadow of the city they destroyed, kept company by the women they stole from it.
