Beskrivelse
The Silence of the Girls retells the epic Trojan War from a fresh perspective. It follows Briseis, a captured queen forced into servitude, as she navigates the brutal world of Greek warriors.
A powerful story that gives voice to the women overshadowed by history’s greatest battles.
When the Trojan prince kidnaps Helen, the Greek forces launch a relentless siege on Troy. Amidst the chaos, Briseis, another queen taken captive, finds herself trapped in the Greek camp. She is forced to become the concubine of Achilles, the very man responsible for slaughtering her family.
Caught in the hands of restless and dangerous soldiers, Briseis becomes a mere pawn in their violent games. While history has long dismissed her as a minor character in a tale dominated by vengeful men, she holds a story that challenges this narrative.
