Casati writes historical fiction set in ancient worlds, drawing on classical sources and mythology. Her novels centre on female characters navigating power, survival, and identity in richly researched historical settings. "Babylonia" explores the life of Enmersi in ancient Mesopotamia, whilst "Clytemnestra" reimagines the Greek tragic figure from her own perspective. Casati's approach prioritises intimate character studies over grand historical sweep, examining how individual lives intersect with larger political forces. Her prose balances scholarly detail with narrative momentum. Readers drawn to character-focused historical fiction, feminist retellings of classical myths, or stories about women navigating ancient power structures will find her work compelling.
