1.0 out of 5 stars incomplete edition, December 31, 2009

ibuyer - See all my reviews

This review is from: The Orestia (Kindle Edition)

This edition is missing a lot. For instance, the last quarter of Agamemmnon is missing, including where he is killed!

This Kindle edition gives no credit for translator. It is a verse translation, but printed as paragraphs, with seemingly random capitalization (where the verse lines actually begin).
