sasha’s Reviews > Sophocles: The Complete Plays > Status Update

fresh out of reading ‘elektra’, a tale of generational trauma and dysfunctional families, it’s one of my more favoured plays by sophocles so far.
melancholy plagues electra as the eldest daughter, left at the hands of her mother (clytemnestra), grieving her father, and reuniting with her baby brother. the complexities of their relationship was something i’d love to read more of.
beautiful! i annotated tons.
