Agamemnon by Aiskhylos translated by Anne Carson (My second time reading Agamemnon)

(Book Review--Classics, Greek Mythology, Blogging the Canon, Reread)

[From An Oresteia translated by Anne Carson]

Started: July 18, 2024

(This is a reread.  I originally read Agamemnon a couple months ago on May 05, 2024.  However, according to my rules, this is still a video only review.  For two reasons.  First, I stated that "In order to be eligible for a written review, at least 2 years have to have passed from the first video review."  Secondly, this is by a different translator.)
