Abstract

The article attempts to analyse the literary features of the novel “The Silence of the Girls” by English writer Pat Barker as an "anti-Iliad". The author considers which works form the basis of the plot of Barker's novel. The features that oppose the novel to the "Iliad" and Euripides' tragedy "The Trojans" are noted.
