About the Book
This classic work by Aeschylus explores the dramatic aftermath of the Fall of Troy. Agamemnon follows the titular king as he returns victorious to Argos, only to discover the devastating betrayal and infidelity of his wife, leading to his tragic death. The narrative continues in The Choephori, where vengeance and justice unfold as Orestes, Agamemnon’s outraged son, exacts retribution on his mother and her lover. Written in the timeless style of Greek tragedy, this edition captures the profound themes of power, revenge, family loyalty, and moral consequence, bringing the enduring intensity of Aeschylus’s storytelling to modern readers.
