sorry for antigoneposting i. wont’ stop. ever. she’s my favorite girl. bless the day i decided to read three different antigone plays in a few hours even though i barely knew the myth and had never read it before. sophocles altered my brain forever and anouilh made it worse and then anne carson broke me irreparably by hitting me with a hammer (<- ‘autonomy sounds like a kind of freedom but you aren’t interested in freedom your plan is to sew yourself into your own shroud using the tiniest of stitches’)
#girl you’re so beautiful omg you’re upholding divine law all by yourself#you died with your mother then your shade accompanied your exiled father and now your ghost is burying your brother… cute#o tomb o bridal chamber? okayyy i will think about you every single day for the rest of my life#antigone
