A new presentation of Sophocles’ tragedy
Anne Carson brings her work as a translator of ancient Greek poetry to Sophocles’ tragedy, presenting it in a fresh language and form. The paperback edition also includes Carson’s preface, “Dear Antigone.” The supplied description positions the book as both a classical play and Carson’s own re-presentation of it, making the translation and its framing material central points of interest.
