This new comic-book version of Euripides’ classic The Trojan
Women follows the fates of Hekabe, Andromache and Kassandra after
Troy has been sacked and all its men killed. The Trojan Women is a
wildly imaginative collaboration between the visual artist Rosanna
Bruno and the poet and classicist Anne Carson. Both wacky and
devastating, the book gives a genuine representation of how human
beings are affected by warfare. All the characters take the form of
animals (except Kassandra, whose mind is in another world). Anne
Carson collaborated with artist Bianca Stone on their Sophokles
reimagining, Antigonick, published by Bloodaxe in 2012. This new
collaboration with Rosanna Bruno couldn’t be more different.
Rosanna Bruno is an artist who makes paintings, comics and bad
puns. Her first book, The Slanted Life of Emily Dickinson (Andrews
McMeel, 2017), is a book of cartoons based on the myth of her life.
