The Children of Jocasta is an exemplary Ancient Greek story flipped on its head. In holding exposition, Natalie Haynes rethinks the Oedipus and Antigone stories from folklore if the regularly ignored female characters were at the middle, and in the process tells another side of this old story.

Synopsis The Children of Jocasta
Thebes is a city in grieving, as yet staggering from an overwhelming disease that attacked each home and left the survivors crushed and unfortunate. This is the Thebes that Jocasta has known as long as she can remember, a city managed by a ruler—her significant other to-be. Jocasta battles through this hopeless marriage until she is out of the blue bereft. Presently allowed to pick her next spouse, she chooses the attractive, young Oedipus. At the point when murmurs arise of an excruciating embarrassment, the very society that once loaned Jocasta its help appears not set in stone to annihilate her. Ismene is a young lady in grieving, yearning for the brilliant days of her childhood, days spent lolling in the yard nursery, perusing and delighting in her folks' joy and love. Presently she is a vagrant and the objective of a homicide plot, assaulted inside the actual dividers of the castle. As the destructive political contest whirls around her, she should uncover the base of the plot—and uncover the reality of the revile that has burned-through her family. The novel depends on Oedipus Tyrannus and Antigone, two of Classical Greece's most convincing misfortunes. Told in meeting accounts, this rethinking of Sophocles' exemplary plays carries life and voice to the ones who were time and again compelled to the foundation of their own accounts.
