Long shot here, but for ideas for interesting folks to join your discussion - would Elizabeth Oldfield be interested? Author of "Fully Alive", as I'm sure you know.

A very good book about women's response to male violence is Pat Barker's 2018 novel, the Silence of the Girls . It's the Iliad (Trojan War) retold from the point of view of the women. The style is awkward but the perspective on Homer's founding narrative of western civilization, the Iliad, is haunting.
