Lysistrata

More about the book

Set against the backdrop of the Peloponnesian War, this ancient Greek comedy follows a woman's bold initiative to end the conflict by rallying women to deny their men sexual relations. Lysistrata's unconventional strategy aims to compel the men to seek peace, but it ignites a fierce battle of wills between the sexes. Through humor and wit, the play explores themes of gender dynamics, power struggles, and the lengths to which individuals will go for peace.
