Dr Alex McAuley, a Senior Lecturer in Hellenistic History and the Classical Association Honorary Secretary, narrates Milly Kotecha's riveting retelling of the myth of Orestes and Pylades, two characters who feature prominently in Greek tragedies such as Euripides' Electra and Orestes andAechylus' Eumenides.
EPIC: Modern Writers, Ancient Stories is a compilation of short stories written by entrants in the 2022 Classical Association Creative Writing Competition, inspired by Stephen Fry's trilogy Mythos, Heroes and Troy.
For the next six weeks, we will be releasing a brand-new story influenced by the ancient world every day, read by a different narrator - make sure you hit 'follow' or 'subscribe' to ensure you don't miss a single story. The full e-book will be released later this year.
