A review by casspro
The Oresteia: Agamemnon, The Libation Bearers, The Eumenides by Aeschylus

4.0

My favorite of the ancient Greek tragedies. Read it in a History of Theatre and Literature class my junior year of college and fell in love. It leads one to wonder of the lost pieces of other trilogies from Sophocles, Euripides and Aristophanes. Such a shame that they've been lost. The description of the furies in The Eumenides will give you chills, as will the harshness of Clytemnestra in Agamemnon. A beautiful collection
