Electra

About this book

From the dramatist Aristotle called "the most tragic of poets, " a retelling of the classical myth of a family torn apart by vengeance. One of the most well-known tragedies by Euripides, Electra brings to life the story of siblings driven to matricide to avenge their father's death. With a unique empathy for the plight of his female characters, Euripides places Electra's passion and sorrow at the center of the play, gracing her with a complexity that distinguishes the tragedian from contemporaries Sophocles and Aeschylus, who also wrote versions of the myth, and making Euripides's Electra as relevant and riveting for the modern reader as when it was first produced in the fifth century BC.
