Lysistrata: A modern paraphrase from the Greek of Aristophanes
When the women of Athens grow weary of endless war, they devise a bold and scandalous plan to force peace upon their husbands and lovers. Laurence Housman's spirited modern adaptation transforms Aristophanes' provocative ancient Greek comedy into accessible English verse, preserving all the wit and audacious humor of this timeless tale of female solidarity and political resistance.
