The sweet girl : a novel / Annabel Lyon.
Aristotle's little Pytho is smart, able to best his own students in debate and match wits with Athenian philosophers. She is (mostly) secure in her father's regard. But then Alexander dies a thousand miles from Athens, and sentiment turns against anyone associated with him, especially his Macedonian- born teacher. Aristotle and his family are forced to flee, and Aristotle soon dies. And his orphaned daughter, only 16, finds that the world is a place of superstition, not logic, and that a girl can be played upon by gods, goddesses, men, and women.
