Church turns the plays of Aeschylus, Sophocles and Euripides into prose stories for readers who cannot yet meet them in Greek. Here are the love of Alcestis, the vengeance of Medea, the death of Hercules, the Seven against Thebes, Antigone, Iphigenia at Aulis and Philoctetes with the bow of Hercules, illustrated after John Flaxman.

A gentle doorway into Greek tragedy for young readers and anyone wanting the plots before the plays. Download the free EPUB.
