The Walled Orchard

The Walled Orchard

The Walled Orchard

Tom Holt

Eupolis of Pallene, a playwright and satirist in his early 20s, recounts what purports to be the world's first autobiography, presenting a vivid – if revisionist – picture of Golden Age Athens during the Peloponnesian War and the invasion of Sicily.

Eupolis is married to Phaedra, beautiful and faithless, and is in rivalry (for his woman as well as for the comic crown) with Aristophanes. Athens is about to go to war with Sicily, but the preparations for the voyage are ominous, and the campaign is a comedy of errors.
