One can only hope, though I'm not sure which I'm hoping for. I mean I'd worry that she'd have the attitude that she was slumming, or hoity-toitying up, the real genre if she engaged. That she wouldn't engage right. But if she did, it might be great.
I hate Christopher Logue's "accounts" of the Iliad. So the fear is that she'd Logueify both Antigone and the genre. But maybe I should trust her more. She is so really good as both poet and translator, despite occasional self-indulgence.
