Premiered in London last year to critical acclaim, Aristophanes’ classic battle of the sexes is given an up-to-the-minute plundering by the world’s leading feminist raconteur, polemicist and wit. "Germaine Greer’s ball-grabbing translation misses no opportunity to squeeze as fruity an interpretation as possible. A bubbling bag of Ancient Greek delights."—Rachel Halliburton, The Independent
The ancient world is gripped by a long and futile war. While the men of Athens fight in a foreign land, the women of Athens can take no more. In secret, they meet with the enemy women and form a pact. The battle moves into the bedroom. No sex for the men - unless the women get Peace.
