Award-winning poet and playwright Robert Bagg offers a set of exciting and authentic new translations of Oedipus the King, Oedipus at Kolonos, and Antigone together known as The Oedipus Cycle. One of the unquestionable acmes of world literature, Sophocles s immortal series of plays centers upon the royal family of Thebes, whose struggles for nobility and greatness lead paradoxically to their own tragic downfalls.

Robert Bagg s timely translations allow the power and depth of Sophocles s masterpieces to shine through clearly to readers today."
