Oedipus the King
Before rereading Oedipus the King written by Sophocles, I had prior knowledge concerning the overall plot and the actions of the protagonist Oedipus. What I liked most about the story is the fact that as a viewer you are fully aware of the effect Oedipus is leaving behind based on his actions. The events unravel before our eyes making us curious to see if Oedipus can change the outcome. What I also liked was the fact that Oedipus got what he deserved because of his mistreatment of others but couldn't see the truth of his actions of killing his father and marrying his mother. Overall I would recommend this story to anyone who's interested in a good tragedy with an interesting plot.
