A tale of honor and dishonor, of love, pain, madness, and
endurance, told with painstaking historical and archaeological
accuracy. Set in Classical Greece in the fifth century BC, The
Priestess and the Slave conveys the extraordinary history of the
time through the eyes of two narrators - a Delphic Pythia deeply
embroiled in the political turmoil earlier in the century, and a
young slavewoman, some decades later, living through the terrible
plague in Athens and the seemingly endless war against the
invincible hoplites of Sparta. Vivid, gritty, and emotionally
moving.
