"How terrible it is to have wisdom when it does not benefit those who have it."—Tiresias, Sophocles the KingContemporary culture has become so caught up in science and technology that we often lose sight of the power and simplicity of myth. We no longer see a reason to pass on stories of the gods, of heroes who accomplish the impossible. For older cultures, these stories had a dozen purposes. They taught how the world was created, where we stand in relation to the gods, as well as how to live with each other and nature. We have lost our reliance on parables and oral culture, but we still long for these stories, in some form or another. Bertrand Bonello has created Tiresia, a retelling of a classic Greek tale, updated for a contemporary audience.
