This is the first ever Greek work I've ever read and I don't even know if I'm supposed to start with this LOL but it was great. I had zero background of this work and went into this blindly (not a pun in regards to the ending har har) and left stunned. Had a "wtf moment". Will now read more Greek works since I have grown interested in reading more Greek tragedies to ruin my day.
