Comparing Anoulith's take on 'Antigone' to Sophodes original play I by far preferred this new modern version. Anoulith wrote this during 1942 in Nazi occupied France, and I believe it subtly represents the perspective of the French Resistance. Not only did this immediately make it a more interesting version in my eyes, but also it was written in a style that broke the fourth wall and the characters almost knew they had a role in the story that they must conform to, wether they desired to or not. This is especially the case with Creon and Antigone. As a result of these differences from the original it was a lot more engaging and overall an enjoyable short read.
