Es uno de los pocos libros de lectura obligatoria (escolar, obviamente) que logró agradarme.
Antígona es una mujer con los ovarios bien puestos, dispuesta a morir por lo que cree. Es un personaje, como mínimo admirable.
El final que tuvo Creonte fue completamente merecido.
((Aunque era esperado (pero no menos impactante) en una tragedia griega)).

Full review here: The Young Eye: Antigone
"The doom reserved for enemies
marches on the ones we love the most."
Recently, I read Antigone, a play written by Sophocles in approximately 441 B.C. It was short enough for me to read in one sitting, which I greatly appreciated, and entertaining enough that I didn't want to put it down. It is a brief tale that takes place without dragging out any action to unnecessary length. This might be the one for you if you're searching for a short, plot-driven play with lots of drama and death.
