Recenzii
"Mulroy's rendering could well become the standard text for students of classics in English, as pre-reading for those attempting the difficult Greek, and possibly as an acting version. . . . It is the best [translation] this reviewer has come across."

Sleep disappears and in its stead
the memory of pain
drips around the restless heart
a never-ending rain.
Self-knowledge comes to those who wish
and those who wish it not.
Our helmsmen are divinities,
and they’re a violent lot.
—chorus from Agamemnon
