Pandora of Athens, 399 B.C. Discussion Guide

About This Book

Pandora is trapped in the roles laid out for Greek women by her narrow-minded father. She waits with dread for her 14th birthday, because that is when she'll have to marry a man twice her age. But one day, when Pandora goes to fetch water, she meets the Wise One, Socrates — and what he tells her changes her life. During his famed trial, Pandora finds herself caught up in the intrigue and turbulent politics of ancient Athens.
