If you've been enjoying the trend of women-centric retellings of ancient mythology, then you should definitely pick up "Clytemnestra" by Costanza Casati. In ancient Greek drama, Clytemnestra is a Spartan princess who is sister to Helen of Troy and wife to the hero Agamemnon and who eventually commits a brutal murder that makes her name synonymous with betrayal and villainy. Casati's tale takes a different look at Clytemnestra, revealing how she becomes the figure of legend and how she sets out for power and revenge against those who wronged her first.
