«Casandra» is the novel by Christa Wolf published by Círculo de Lectores in paperback (160 pages, in Spanish), with illustrations by Núria Quevedo.
During the Trojan War, Cassandra, a Trojan princess with the gift of prophecy, sees how no one believes her visions. The narrative follows her growing critical awareness as she witnesses the siege and fall of her city, and reflects on war, power and the female condition in a patriarchal society.
The work was originally published in 1983 under the title «Kassandra»; the Spanish edition of the novel appeared in 1987.
For readers interested in feminist rewritings of Greek myths and in twentieth-century German narrative.
Christa Wolf was a German novelist and essayist. She is considered one of the most important writers to emerge from the former East Germany.
