The Three Theban Plays : Antigone, Oedipus the King, and Oedipus at ColonusSophocles
Your Satisfaction is Guaranteed:
"[T]his vivid free-verse translation of Aeschylus' dark and bloody tragic trilogy...evinces Hughes's wide range of interests and mastery of classic literatures....[A]n essential further installment in the always interesting oeuvre of a gifted poet who was also a diligent scholar."
Kirkus, 06/01/1999
Review:"The problem is not that Hughes adapts or adds to the poem....But Hughes's changes move out and away from the text rather than deeper into it."
Garry Wills, New York Times Book Review, 09/05/1999
