A riveting re-telling of Ovid's gruesome masterpiece "Tereus, Philomela and Procne"- the story that inspired Titus Andronicus. Occasionally humorous, and always harrowing and horrifying, Shields' adaptation features a chorus of ravaged women, each a victim of 20th Century conflicts: Bosnia Herzegovina, Rwanda, Bangladesh, Nanking, and Berlin.
