Review: Antigone was the best, closely followed by Oedipus Rex - Antigone was the best, closely followed by Oedipus Rex. But I like Shakespeare style tragedy, which both of those are, so take that with a grain of salt. I thought Antigone was a wonderfully written tragedy that was reminding me of Shakespeare at every turn, though.
Review: Terrible book, needed it a class, good buy - This play is old, boring, and terrible. what better way of learning composition then by reading a play involving incest. The book arrived on time, in great condition, and at a fraction of the price of our college rip-off store (book store).
