Agamemnon

Charles L. Mee’s adaptation of Aeschylus’ Greek tragedy concentrates, like Homer’s The Odyssey, on the impulses behind cruelty and war. This is the story of the eponymous general upon his return from a 10-year military campaign to his wife, Clytemnestra, who seethes that her husband sacrificed their daughter to the gods for favorable sea winds.
