Antigone by Sophocles
“Murnaghan has rendered Sophocles’ notoriously thorny verse into a text that pulsates with intimacy and immediacy without sacrificing power and nuance, creating a translation that will remain fresh for a very long time. The accompanying material is so thoughtfully curated that the volume as a whole serves as a full introductory course to this extraordinary play and its outsized cultural impact.”—Ella Haselswerdt, University of California, Los Angeles
