Medea is an ancient Greek tragedy written by Euripides, based upon the myth of Jason and Medea and first produced in 431 BC. The plot centers on the actions of Medea, a former princess of the "barbarian" kingdom of Colchis, and the wife of Jason; she finds her position in the Greek world threatened as Jason leaves her for a Greek princess of Corinth. Medea takes vengeance on Jason by murdering Jason's new wife as well as her own children, after which she escapes to Athens to start a new life.

I've never read this in its entirety, so I was happy to have a chance to listen to this recording. The narrator was amazing! I was captivated and drawn into a very crazy and horrid tale, and I really enjoyed the listen.

I'm happy that through audiobooks we (and the younger generation) can explore the classic tales of old in a completely different way. It's a totally different experience!

Loved it, well done :)

"Well, when you gettin' got then somebody done got you and you go get them. When you get 'em, everybody's gon' get got." - Madea

While the above quote is from the Tyler Perry character, the Medea of Euripides' play would likely understand the sentiment quite well. Adultery, betrayal, feminism, revenge, murder, 'Medea' has it all, and demonstrates how great Greek tragedies can be. This is an excellent production of the classic story, and Jonathan Waters does a fantastic job narrating. He not only does voices for the characters, which greatly aids in differentiating between speakers, but his tone and delivery are excellent as well. While the language is a bit archaic (Shakespearean) and can be a little confusing at times, I found this added to the gravity of the story.

I greatly enjoyed listening to this production, and would recommend it.

Hell hath no fury...

I loved this classic story and thought the narration was spot on. It is short and a classic, but it doesn't leave the reader/listener wanting because it is a complete story which continues another fantastic tale of Jason and the Argonauts. I am not a Greek mythology expert, but I always loved these stories and jumped at the chance to listen to this story.

This book was given to me for free at my request for my voluntary and unbiased review.

Medea

It’s a beautiful story, but the readers stumbled several times and for the love of Helios, how could you not find a woman to voice Medea!? Not having a woman for such an important role, you don’t feel the woman’s scorn emotion, torture and agony of doing such a vengeful act to her own children. It sounds like a dude trying to be a girl which created an unattached feeling.

Beautiful story told with no attachment

Medea is a classic play telling the story of the jilted wife of Jason, of Argonauts and Golden Fleece fame, and her revenge. It is a fairly straight forward story, it has her explaining her anguish, then Jason explaining why he has to marry someone else - a princess - rather than her, a barbarian woman. So you get 'both sides'. Others try convince her not to enact revenge, before she finally decides she will, and undertakes the task. What she does, and the aftermath is worth listening to the play for. While simple, it is a classic. And hell has no fury like a woman scorned.

The narration by Jonathan Waters is excellent. He performs the whole thing as a one man stage production, with different voices and intonations for each character, and for the narrator/stage directions. He imparts emotion into the whole thing. It really feels like multiple people doing a play, not just one man. Really enjoyable work by Waters.
