Women power! This is a very humorous Greek play about a group of military wives who threatened to go on a sex strike as a way to protest war. It had me cracking up and introduced me to the brilliant nuanced humor of Aristophanes. It is a relatively short read and I highly recommend it. I liked it so much that I even suggested the name 'Lysistrata' for my second child. Alas, the hubby rejected it on the basis that it's a tongue-twister.
