Alkestis is a moving \"romance\" with death; it has parallels to Shakespeare's The Winter's Tale. Helen, an alternative version of the tragic portrayal of the Trojan War, shows Helen \"relocated in a delightful comedy\" (Observer) - as an innocent victim of her own beauty, hidden in Egypt by the gods while her image has been abducted by Paris. In Ion, a father who thought he was childless discovers his son, and a son who thought he was motherless finds his mother.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mia Karts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51858922307872,"sku":"NEW0413716201","price":29.94,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0980\/7426\/3840\/files\/91EOcIIl2ZL.jpg?v=1781584444","url":"https:\/\/miakarts.com\/products\/euripides-plays-3-alkestis-helen-ion-classical-dramatists-0413716201","provider":"Miakarts Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
