15 reviews for The Silence of the Girls

  1. Yati Vinayaka

    Absolutely stunning! I couldn’t put it down. Briseis’s journey is unforgettable. One of the best books I’ve read this year.

  2. Meet Dipakkumar Modi

    A decent read, although I didn’t find it as captivating as others have. The writing was good, but the story didn’t grab me.

  3. Padole Rushabh Anil

    A unique and moving perspective on the Trojan War. The characters are complex and well-developed. Highly recommend this book.

  4. Vibhu Vibhor Tiwari

    Not what I expected. It focused more on Briseis than the war itself. It was okay, but I wanted more action and less internal monologue.

  5. Mrityunjay Singh

    A powerful exploration of women in wartime. Some scenes were tough to read, but the overall message is one of resilience and hope.

  6. Brahat K Singh

    A powerful retelling. Achilles’ rage is palpable, but Briseis’s voice steals the show. Some parts felt slow, but overall, a worthwhile read.

  7. Pratyush Pandey

    Miller’s take on the Trojan War is mesmerizing. Briseis’ plight and strength resonated deeply. A must-read for mythology buffs.

  8. Junnyali Panthri

    I enjoyed the book, but it was a bit depressing. It is a poignant reminder of the horrors of war and the strength of women.

  9. Shubhender Shrivastav

    A good read, although I preferred Madeline Miller’s ‘Circe’. Still, the female perspective on the Trojan War was compelling.

  10. Subhash Sourav

    Interesting concept, but I found it a bit repetitive. The characters were well-developed, but the plot dragged in places.

  11. Rishi Raj Verma

    Heartbreaking and beautifully written. The author does a great job of bringing these silenced women to life. A must read.

  12. Riya Gorl

    Miller’s prose is beautiful. The women’s perspectives are heartbreaking and insightful. A fresh take on a classic. Highly recommended.

  13. Naresh Lalwani

    An emotional and thought-provoking read. I was moved by the stories of these women. It’s a must-read for fans of mythology.

  14. Nitish Kumar Singh

    Interesting but brutal. It felt relentlessly bleak. Beautiful writing, but hard to stomach at times. Be prepared for heavy themes.

  15. Shreyas Reddy Adireddy

    Excellent! I was engrossed from beginning to end. The characters are compelling and the story is beautifully written. Highly recommended.
