Euripedes 
Medea [EPUB ebook] 

An empathetic look at the destructive power of female passion from the dramatist Aristotle called “the most tragic of poets.”   First performed in 431 BC, Medea is Euripides most powerful and well-known play. Cast aside by Jason when he pursues another woman, Medea seeks the ultimate revenge against her faithless husband by murdering his new wife along with the two people who matter to both Jason and Medea most: their children. In the hands of a Greek tragedian renowned for his eloquent and complex female characters, Medea shines a light on the full range of human emotion with keen psychological insight, bringing the ancient myth richly to life for the modern reader.
