Oedipus The King
Oedipus the king is written by Sophocles. Oedipus is a story of a man fighting his fate but he lost. Fate is inevitable and he is unable to fight his fate. Oedipus the king married his mother because he didn't know about who his parents were. He was the most unfortunate person in the history of mankind. He not only got married to his mother but also killed his own father. According to me, he was also a little ignorant about knowing his past so that is why he has the consequences of losing his mother and killing his father. He at end made himself blind and felt into the darkest whole of reality. I didn't like the story that much, its because its disgusting to get married to your mother who gave birth to you. Even though it was unintentional he still killed his father and married his mother. That is the worst part of the reason I don't like this story.
