HELEN OF TROY is a quirky and lively retelling of the classic Greek legend in small-town America. Helen Ramsey and her good-old-boy husband, Rudy, fight like caged roosters. When their bachelor neighbor becomes Helen’s confidant, rumors spread and sides square off until the entire town joins the ruckus. After Helen is kidnapped by her would-be lover, Rudy resorts to a clever Trojan Horse stratagem, and Helen wages a war worthy of a goddess. But will even that be enough to triumph over the gossip of a small-town Cassandra? Non sono state trovate descrizioni di biblioteche |

While I liked the book and it had a good plot I felt there was something missing for me. I enjoyed the character's Helen, Rudy and Garland.
While Garland tried or thought he was rescuing Helen from some sort of abuse he did not realize that Helen was the person responsible for the items that had been thrown. He had good intentions but we all know what happens when we have good intentions. But Garland intentions seemed to turn to something different and he wanted more.
This story is set in the Appalachian Mountain's area with a lot of redneck people (yes, I can say redneck since I live near the area).
Helen is the average person that is taking care of everyone but no one is taking care of her.
I enjoyed the mythology part of the book. I believe it helped to give the book a better more developed plot. (
