4.0 out of 5 stars The Return of Helen of Troy, June 25, 2005

By	Dew - See all my reviews

This review is from: The private life of Helen of Troy (A Graphic giant) (Paperback)

John Erskine wrote this book in 1925. He wrote this book as a historical narrative starting with her return to Troy.
The chapters include:
Helen's Return
Helen's Return
The Younger Generation
Their Elders
Death and Birth
Helen's Beauty

In 1927 a silent film was based on this novel, which was nominated for an Academy Award in 1928 in the category of 'Best Title Writing'. However, in that year "The Jazz Singer" received an award for introducing sound to film, and the category for which "The Private Life of Helen of Troy" was nominated was dropped.

The portrait in this book of Helen is not what I had expected--she is a very frank and an opinionated woman yet conventional.
