Greek tragedies are depressing as is, but the Trojan War is something else entirely. And for those who listened to The Women of Troy or The Song of Achilles, the content isn't anything new. But she provides such a lyrical voice to Clytemnestra, Elektra, and Cassandra that you don't get to hear in most retellings. They have hopes and joys throughout all of the suffering. I also loved having 3 narrators, as it helped me distinguish between the characters. But this book is still *very* depressing to listen to due to its subject matter. Good on Jennifer Saint for making all of the rape and murder somewhat palatable though!
