The Three Theban Plays. Antigone, Oedipus The King, Oedipus At Colonus

Towering over the rest of Greek tragedy, these three plays are among the most enduring and timeless dramas ever written. Robert Fagl es` translation conveys all of Sophocles` lucidity and power: the cut and thrust of his dialogue, his ironic edge, the surge and maj esty of his choruses and, above all, the agonies and triumphs of his characters.
