The Silence of the Girls by Pat Barker

Pat Barker retells the Iliad in The Silence of the Girls from a new and forgotten point of view: the women. Briseis was queen of a city before it fell making her a slave to Achilles. An entertaining story. Barker misses the mark for victims and survivors of abuse.
