"A transporting novel told in the voice of a girl Virgil left in the margins. It is an absorbing, reverent, magnificent story." --Cleveland Plain DealerNational Book Award-winning literary legend Ursula K. Le Guin reimagines Virgil's epic poem The Aeneid through the eyes and voice of Lavinia, Aeneas' last wife.In The Aeneid, Vergil's hero fights to claim the king's daughter, Lavinia, with whom he is destined to found an empire. Lavinia herself never speaks a word. Now, Ursula K. Le Guin gives Lavinia a voice in a novel that takes us to the half-wild world of ancient Italy, when Rome was a muddy village near seven hills.Lavinia grows up knowing nothing but peace and freedom, until suitors come. Her mother wants her to marry handsome, ambitious Turnus. But omens and prophecies spoken by the sacred springs say she must marry a foreigner--that she will be the cause of a bitter war--and that her husband will not live long. When a fleet of Trojan ships sails up the Tiber, Lavinia decides to take her destiny into her own hands. And so she tells us what Vergil did not: the story of her life, and of the love of her life.

She chose love. The price she paid was war.A stunning combination of history and mythology - 'an intriguing, luxuriously realised novel' FINANCIAL TIMESREADERS on LAVINIA:'Utterly compelling' ?????'Clever twist' ?????'Super' ?????'Like Spartan Helen, I caused a war. She caused hers by letting men who wanted her take her. I caused mine because I wouldn't be given, wouldn't be taken, but chose my man and my fate'Lavinia is the daughter of the King of Latium, a victorious warrior who loves peace; she is her father's closest companion. Now of an age to wed, Lavinia's mother favours her own kinsman, handsome, heroic, everything a young girl should want. Instead, Lavinia dreams of mighty Aeneas, a man she has heard of only from a ghost of a poet, who comes to her in the gods' holy place and tells her of her future, and Aeneas' past... If she refuses to wed her mother's choice, Lavinia knows she will start a war...'Subtly moving, playful...a novel that brought me to tears more than once. Lavinia is a delightful heroine' GUARDIAN

Lavinia Coates wanted to be a nurse in order to travel. She got her wish but, caught up in a nightmare, she got far more than she bargained for Lavinia's dreams of distant lands began as a child during World War I.In a dismal puddle of English rainwater, she is attracted by the bright colours of the foreign stamps which inspire her future nursing career. Yet it is 20 years later, during the Blitz of World War II, before she breaks away from a boring job to the tropical heat of British Malaya - in more ways than one. In a non-stop whirl of daytime work and night time partying, she is finally in a job she loves and finds herself feted and courted too. One man stands out - who is he really, and is he sincere?But it is December 1941, and her lover must fight for the freedom of the colony. Sick and desperately worried, Lavinia waits alone for news but soon realises she must flee for her life. In an epic and dangerous journey, she travels further and further, across seas and continents, away from the man she loves. Will she ever see him again?This is a true story of love and loss, the call of duty and the powerlessness of individuals against momentous world events.Claire Gartrell is an author and academic. Since completing her doctorate at Oxford University, she has continued an exciting and varied life as a nurse in the south of France and then in the Blue Mountains of New South Wales, Australia. She now lives in central Sydney.
