After Troy: Oberon Modern Plays

Autor Glyn Maxwell
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 21 feb 2011
Troy is in ruins. Its men are dead. Its women are captives and the victorious Greeks are camped in the ashes preparing to sail home. Four quarrelling women drawn together by grief. Four exhausted soldiers who hate each other's guts. A King who falls for a girl so mad she can see the audience. A teenage princess dreaming of the Underworld. And a lonely man of conscience trying to get it all down on paper. Award-winning poet and playwright Glyn Maxwell rips up two Greek tragedies and makes a modern play from the fragments. A witty and passionate retelling of Euripides' Women Of Troy and Hecuba, After Troy exposes the cruelties of war both then and now.
