Mythica by Emily Hauser offers a groundbreaking, woman‑focused retelling of Bronze Age Greece. This 496‑page trade paperback (published April 23, 2025 by Doubleday, Transworld UK) re‑centers legendary figures like Helen of Troy, Cassandra, Penelope, Circe, Aphrodite and others—presented not as mythic archetypes but as real women whose lives can be reconstructed through archaeology, DNA findings, and re‑readings of classical texts. Hauser, a scholar of ancient history, blends rigorous research with thrilling storytelling to breathe new life into the world behind Homer’s epics.
