A review by sweetsorrows
An Oresteia by Euripides, Aeschylus, Sophocles

5.0

i've always been fascinated by greek myth, like any percy jackson kid, but i was always scared of the classics. i found a quote of this book online, and i loved how carson blended myth with more modern language. it makes the story a lot more accessible, and it helps drive home the point that myth was created by humans for other humans, even if language gets in the way.

the modern language but classic setting really are fascinating. i felt like these characters were real, not just Iconic Greek Characters.

also the "it's rotten work" "not if it's you" quote is in this book and it fuckin jumpscared me
