This is a re-read for me, as we read this for English class when I was in high school years ago. Probably everyone knows the story of Oedipus and how he and everyone around him tried to cheat the prophecy of the oracle, and failed. It packs a punch. I don’t remember it being quite so dramatic and vivid when I read it the first time years ago. Or maybe I just appreciate it better now since I’m reading it because I want to, not because a teacher is requiring it.
