The fifty daughters of Danaos have with their father fled by ship from Egypt, escaping compulsatory marriage with their fifty cousins, the sons of Aegyptos. They arrive in Argos, where, by supplication to the king and people, they seek refuge from their cousins, who sailed in pursuit. Their devout abhorrence of the marriage is the weightiest theme of the play.

The narrator has a wonderful voice, clear, strong, yet feminine. I hope to listen to her work again in the future.
I listened to this not long after listening to Iliad and Odyssey, and I was amazed by the contrast. It's a play in one act, in one location, yet there is struggle, joy, and grief, stories of old, and challenges.
The translation is at a reading level that seems way over my head (some college). I don't know if a different translation would have made the story more accessible to me, but listening to it at .75x speed gave me more time to try to process everything (it also gave me more time to appreciate Beth Bostic's voice).

A challenging translation, wonderfully read

The narration is good. The translation is ancient and overbearingly poetic. This 1:20 hour play seems endless during the listening for this reason. A modern version is much needed.
