This is an interesting retelling of the Trojan war and surrounding events told from many different viewpoints of the women who were affected by the war. It's not told in chronological order and there isn't a narrative through-line, so it honestly feels a bit chaotic and jumpy. It's more like an anthology rather than a novel. Especially since some of the chapters are in first person and some are in third person.
The characterization you do get is really intriguing and there are a lot of interesting seeds here. It probably would be confusing if you aren't familiar with the Trojan war, but it's a great overview as a refresher of the big events that happened. I just wish it focused in greater depth on less perspectives.
