A review by brittmariasbooks
Oedipus Trilogy: New Versions of Sophocles' Oedipus the King, Oedipus at Colonus, and Antigone by Bryan Doerries

dark reflective sad fast-paced

4.25

 The introduction was really interesting! Theatre of War Productions sounds like a great initiative! Although the introduction does spoil the plays so if you don't want that, read it afterwards.

I really enjoyed the plays, especially Oedipus the King (Oedipus Rex). The translations by Bryan Doerries are very readable. I had no trouble with the wording or phrasing. These new translations hopefully make the play more accessible to the new generations.
