Immerse yourself in ancient Italy with 'Lavinia,' a novel by Ursula K. Le Guin that gives voice to a secondary character from Virgil's Aeneid. Lavinia grows up in a world of peace and freedom, but her destiny changes with the arrival of suitors and prophecies that force her to marry a foreigner, unleashing a war. The novel transports the reader to a semi-savage era, where Rome is just a village, exploring themes of destiny, love, and female strength in ancient times.
