| Summary |
"King Creon of Thebes has ordered his defiant niece Antigone walled into a tomb to die. While Thebes waits for her to perish of hunger and thirst, the city's darkest secrets come to light: Creon's role in the death of his sister Jocasta, Oedipus' fate in exile, the rivalry that led to war between Oedipus' twin sons - and the truth about their final battle. Antigone's sister Ismene, her aunt Eurydike, and her husband Haemon find surprising allies in their effort to free the condemned woman before it is too late. Will Creon relent? The siege may be over, but the conflict continues"--Back cover. |
