Overview

In the midst of a bombed-out city still feeling the aftershocks of war, the rebellious and intense Antigone defies her uncle to bury her disgraced brother. This contemporary response to the myth of Antigone brings powerful, modern prose to an ancient and universal story. Bringing the ties that bind us to our homes and our families into sharp focus, Cooper’s sharp adaptation breathes new life into an ancient classic.
