Antigonick and over every creeping thing

and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth" is a prophecy that has hardened into fact

Topol's unprecedented

and shines a fresh light on a subject that is all too often treated reductively--as a drug

and the girls may lose more than they bargained for in their fight to survive

Antigonick and over every creeping thingAnne Carson has published translations of the ancient Greek poets Sappho, Simonides, Aiskhylos, Sophokles and Euripides. Antigonick is her seminal work. Sophokles' luminous and disturbing tragedy is here given an entirely fresh language and presentation. This paperback edition includes a new preface by the author, "Dear Antigone."
