A Thousand Ships by Natalie Haynes

A Thousand Ships by Natalie Haynes

The muse Calliope opens by telling a poet that she is tired of being asked for another song about heroes, and that this time he will get the women.

So: the Trojan women waiting on the beach to be allocated to Greek households. Penelope writing increasingly impatient letters as Odysseus takes ten years to come home. Cassandra, believed by nobody. Iphigenia at Aulis. Creusa in the burning city. Haynes is a classicist and very funny, and the anger is precisely aimed.

Shortlisted for the Women's Prize for Fiction. One of the best of the myth retellings.
