More about the book

In this dramatic conclusion to The Oresteian trilogy, Orestes grapples with the repercussions of avenging his father's death by killing Clytemnestra. Pursued by vengeful Furies, he seeks refuge in Delphi and later Athens, haunted by his mother's ghost. The story culminates in a pivotal trial presided over by Athena, where Orestes' fate hangs in the balance. This work not only showcases Aeschylus's masterful storytelling but also explores themes of justice, mercy, and the complexities of divine influence, appealing to both ancient and modern readers.
