So today I realized I was rather behind in my book blogging so I figured I should catch up a little. I finished both Oresteia and The Aeneid quite some time ago.
Oresteia was a very good play. I was very impressed with it but slightly disappointed that it was still about Troy because I felt that it being the third book I had read about Troy in a row it was a little bit of over kill. That being said it was extremely different from all the other books on the Trojan war that I had read thus far.
It dealt with some very difficult conflicts and the proper forms of justice. All the characters were extremely strong. The ending leaves something to be desired but you can't have everything in a book.
I would give this book 7 snakes out of 10. I liked it so much in fact that I wrote my last paper on it which wasn't the best but one can't complain too much. If you're looking for a good play about Troy this is definitely your book.
