In the aftermath of the fall of Troy, the reign of King Agamemnon is tainted by the bloodshed of a long war and the evil of a troubled heritage. His queen, Clytemnestra, and her lover, Aegisthus, take revenge on him, and cause his downfall.
Publisher's Notes
First Line: "WATCHMAN I pray the gods to quit me of my toils, To close the watch I keep, this livelong year; For as a watch-dog lying, not at rest, Propped on one arm, upon the palace-roof Of Atreus' race, too long, too well I know The starry conclave of the midnight sky, Too well, the splendours of the firmament, The lords of light, whose kingly aspect shows- <BR>What time they set or climb the sky in turn- <BR>The year's divisions, bringing frost or fire."
