The Woman from Andros
An exquisite historical novel by Thornton Wilder. The story of the feat of a woman's soul, daring to break established norms and paying dearly for her courage.
The story of Chryseis – not just a hetaera, the mistress of what would...

And this means that Chryseis's spiritual rebellion is doomed from the start…
