Galloway, P.: The Courtesan's Daughter. A Novel. Toronto - New York 2002, 259 S. Toronto -New York 2004 Bemerkung: From humble beginnings, Phano rises to become one of ancient Athens' most powerful citizens through her marriage to Theo, but they both have powerful enemies who don't share their political views. Phano, a 14-year-old, has a problem. Although she and her mother are free citizens, they are nevertheless dogged by the ugly, "frog-faced" Phrynion, who believes Phano is still his slave. Set in ancient Athens, at a time when the threat of invasion by Philip of Macedon is underplayed yet ever-present, The Courtesan's Daughter by Priscilla Galloway is a compelling read replete with not only exotic customs and characters but also universal dilemmas. The novel opens with Phano, her mother Nera, and their slave Minta being kidnapped from their home and confined in Phrynion's house. It is only thanks to Stephanos, Nera's husband and Theo, a Basileus (one of the nine ruling magistrates of the city) that they finally manage to escape unharmed. Nevertheless, life post-Phrynion is fraught with other challenges; when Phano falls for the powerful Theo, her parentage is brought into question, and she must face the suspicions of his family. Phano is a strong female protagonist_before she finally marries Theo she is trained by powerful priestesses at a sort of summer camp for adolescent girls_but she is in no way a feminist revisionist heroine. Her position is both prestigious and precarious, and while she is perhaps more outspoken than your typical Basilinna, she does little to challenge or undermine traditions sacred to what is essentially a patriarchal society. There is power and satisfaction to be had from being a good wife in Phano's world, a strongly held notion that informs and authenticates the characterization in the novel. With its clear division between good and evil, The Courtesan's Daughter will no doubt speak to a teenager's strong sense of what is right; this is a story that will appeal to "tweens" (12 plus) looking beyond Christina Aguilera for role models. Phano's enemy is identified from the outset, and there are no blurry notions of morality to confound her. Yet Galloway also injects some intriguing ambiguity; there is some romance to be reckoned with, but also some hard lessons regarding what love will provide in the way of safety and practicalities, and Phano, who has in the past been impatient and brusque with Minta, ends up freeing her slave in the novel's denouement_an act of generosity which might nonetheless have an ironic ring for today's youth.
