Few works have travelled as far, cut as deep, or exerted such gravitational pull on world culture as Oedipus Rex. Sophocles' tragedy is one of the foundations of storytelling itself — the first great drama of knowledge and consequence, echoing through writers from Freud to Coetzee, from Shakespeare to Murdoch. It is the story of a man who solves riddles only to discover he is one, and of a city undone by the brilliance of its own reason. This graphic edition captures that tension on a striking visual register: sharp lines, angular compositions, and a palette that amplifies the drama without resorting to the ornamental. Dramatic and modern, it turns a 2,500-year-old play into something startlingly alive; the result urgent, cinematic, and human.
