Ten seemingly endless years of brutal conflict between the Greeks and the Trojans are over, and the Greeks are victorious. In the middle of the night, Creusa wakes to find her beloved Troy engulfed in flames. This was never the story of one woman, or two. In A Thousand Ships, broadcaster and classicist Natalie Haynes retells the story of the Trojan War from an all-female perspective, for fans of Madeline Miller and Pat Barker. 'With her trademark passion, wit, and fierce feminism, Natalie Haynes gives much-needed voice to the silenced women of the Trojan War' – Madeline Miller, author of Circe One of the Guardian's 'Best Books of 2019'
