"Goddess of Yesterday" by Caroline B. Cooney follows the story of a young girl named Anaxandra, who is captured by pirates in ancient Greece and taken to the island of Crete. As she navigates her new life, she finds herself at the heart of a power struggle between her captors and the gods they worship. Anaxandra disguises herself, stepping into the role of a long-lost princess. She grapples with themes of identity, loyalty, and the intricacies of ancient society, while also trying to find a way back to her own life. The story explores her courage and resilience in the face of daunting challenges. [Generated by language model - please report any problems].
