more like 2.5 stars. hard to read bc of the old language and the subject might be a little.. idk um..It's not for everyone. but u thought it was quite interesting. read it for school.

Very, very good. I enjoyed this one quite a lot, even more than Antigone.

Oedipus is such an interesting character, I'm pretty sure I enjoyed this so much simply because of his character and history. What can I say, the tragic ones are always my favorite.

Plot twist will blow your mind. One of the first plays I ever read, and let me tell you this was one hell of a way to start. Definitely something everyone should read at some point in their lives.
