Christopher Waller’s Reviews > The Oresteia: Agamemnon, The Libation Bearers, The Eumenides > Status Update

Re-read the Agamemnon, which is perhaps my favorite of all the Greek plays. Like most of the best authors of antiquity, Aeschylus produces compelling and timeless drama. Once Cassandra arrives, the whole play builds to a roiling boil which is marvelous to read.
