GHOSTS OF TROY

We all of us have memories: some good, some bad, some wishful, some remorseful – and all of them, ghosts of the past. The place is Bronze Age Greece; the period is of fabled Siege of Troy. Yet this is most definitely NOT yet another ‘swords-and-sandals’ story. Instead, it takes a unique approach by looking into the psyche of some of the characters whose lives were formed – and destroyed – by that most enduring of mythological tales. Each character has been given a unique ‘voice’ as each narrates their personal thoughts, memories and emotions of their place in time. The voices, memories and emotions of these ‘ghosts’ are mirrored and interwoven throughout; the whole coming together as one piece of the mosaic created by the enthralling stories they narrate. The book includes a map of Ancient Greece; a glossary and ends with Author Notes on Bronze Age Greece; the principal gods and goddesses; Homer and Hesiod.
