520    Colm Toibin brings a modern sensibility and language to an
       ancient classic, and gives this extraordinary character 
       new life, so that listeners not only believe 
       Clytemnestra's thirst for revenge, but applaud it. He 
       brilliantly inhabits the mind of one of Greek myth's most 
       powerful villains to reveal the love, lust, and pain she 
       feels. Told in fours parts, this is a fiercely dramatic 
       portrait of a murderess, who will herself be murdered by 
       her own son, Orestes. It is Orestes' story, too: his 
       capture by the forces of his mother's lover Aegisthus, his
       escape and his exile. And it is the story of the vengeful 
       Electra, who watches over her mother and Aegisthus with 
       cold anger and slow calculation, until, on the return of 
       her brother, she has the fates of both of them in her 
       hands.
