Seems prideful to assign a number of stars to a play by Sophocles!

Philoctetes and Electra are the best for me. The women of Trachis has a good sense of irony and Ajax just seems like a psycho.

Similar themes to the Theben Trilogy, but not as strong. Also this version of the plays is not as good as Fagles translation for me.

«Lo mejor es no nacer...»

Este es el final: el final de la historia de Edipo y el final de la historia de Sófocles. El protagonista acepta su muerte como si de un viejo amigo se tratase: sin miedo y con cierto placer al verla. Con el último monólogo de Edipo se me ha erizado la piel como si fuese la primera vez que lo leí: aunque sea un juguete del destino, el anterior rey de Tebas no deja de ser un simple padre que, incluso a las puertas de la muerte, se preocupa por el bienestar de sus hijas.
