    Antigone (Paperback)
    Short Description: Antigone by Jean Anouilh is a rewriting of the myth of Antigone of Sophocles. This rewriting comes in the form of a play, short, without acts or scenes and easy to read. My vision: I think this play is ideal for introducing childre

    Antigone (Paperback)
    Antigone is one of the greatest female figure from Greek mythology, and even the history of women in general. The second charismatic figure to which it is often associated is Electra. There still has a touch of féménité and humanity in Antigone we do
