“It’s 429BC in Thebes and Creon says to Oedipus, "Who in his right mind would rather rule and live in anxiety than sleep in peace?" But after King Oedipus gouges out his own eyes, maybe Creon can't help but grab the throne. Or maybe Creon is put there. Either way, when the 'I' appears at the end of the name, that's that. I can do what I want / is this still what I want? - but the question just hovers.”
