I really enjoyed the poetry in this. It was my first experience with Greek plays since high school. I found the format to be quite stilted and odd. Every time I pictured what a scene would look like on stage, I lost my emotional connection to the characters. That caught me off guard, but I did really like this translation. It had a modern enough vocabulary to make it easy to read, but the way the words worked together felt ancient and powerful. I quite enjoyed this and will be trying some more Greek plays soon!
