Ancient Greece
If power will not be given to her, then she will take it for herself. Sun: 10am-6pm Costanza Cosati's dazzling debut isn't just a retelling of the consequences of war on women - it is about how women fought their own wars. From one of Greek mythology's most reviled characters-a woman who challenged the absolute power of men-comes this fiery tale of power, family rivalry and a mother's burning love. She plots revenge. The House of Atreus: Clytemnestra's Bind is the first instalment in an epic three-part Greek mythology series.

Emma's Biblio Treasures
The fire inside her radiated from the page, Casati making me feel her heartache, rage, vengeance and strength so vividly that it was like it was coursing through my own veins. Fierce, feisty, intelligent, passionate, and unforgiving, she is a remarkable heroine who refuses to be broken or shackled by the rules of the patriarchal society. It consumed me, feeling alive as it burned with fury. She manages to find love but it is soon snatched away in a despicable act of betrayal by the cruel tyrant Agamemnon, who is determined to make her his wife at any cost.

It’s time for Clytemnestra to tell her story in this glorious feminist retelling. Right now! And so she becomes a woman motivated by vengeance, spending her life plotting and waiting for the perfect moment to strike. Wronged Woman.
Before reading this book I’d only heard Clytemnestra’s story as part of the background to the stories of her sister, Helen of Troy, and her daughter Elektra. A furious, devastating, enthralling and magnificent retelling you won’t want to put down, Clytemnestra is a must-read. Worth your time!
What can I say, this story is an incredible tale about Clytemnestra, a Spartan princess, a queen, a smart politician and fighter. I rooted for her at every step as she bided her time, waiting for the perfect moment to strike and avenge all of the betrayal. Heroine.
So I was excited to learn more about this strong and fascinating woman. I am an avid fan of the Greek Mythology retellings and this book was on my radar straight after being published. And when Clytemnestra’s vengeance is served, it is glacial. I listened to it on audiobook and I was hooked from the start.
If you love retellings, I strongly recommend you to read this story! Mother. And although I knew a lot of the things that happened in these myths, I was still on the edge of my seat, listening with baited breath to discover what would happen next, as if it was all new rather than a retelling, something that is a testament to Casati’s masterful storytelling. Murderer.
