Review of 'The Oresteia' on 'Goodreads'

4 stars

I first read the stories in college (40 years ago). I am sure that it was a different translation, but it still get shivers when I hear the stories. I know that it's a very old tale, and there's nothing particularly special about it, but the whole feeling of the Greek tragedies is everlasting. I'm not use to the "chorus" being anything but read by myself, but I really liked the treatment of several voices together reading the parts of the Greek chorus. It made for a great afternoon!
