Oedipus Revisited: a Tragedy
Henry A. Buchanan
No other story in Greek mythology has received the attention given to Sophocles' Oedipus. Now in Oedipus Revisited Henry Buchanan has created the modern myth in the Memorial Baptist Hospital in fictional Ocmulgee Georgia where Jewish doctor Claude Rousseault marries Jessica the beautiful daughter of an eminent Baptist minister, and their son Barrie is fated to embody the ancient tragedy. There are some lighter moments - they are like sunbeams shining through dark clouds - when Chaplain Steve McAlistair grapples with the idiosyncrasies and anxieties of the hospital staff and patients, jousts with the local clergy, and baffles his ever-present secretary Miss Robinson, and is sustained by his ever-faithful wife Nancy. The chaplain himself is baffled by his God who refuses to give him the answers he seeks as he and Doctor Rousseault wrestle with the evil design, powerless to avert the disaster of an Oracle of Apollo.
