Set in the aftermath of the Trojan War, the play follows Andromache, who grapples with grief after losing her husband Hector and son to the Greeks. Captured and enslaved, she faces the complexities of her new life as a concubine to Neoptolemus, who is conflicted between his loyalty to his father and his feelings for her. The narrative delves into themes of love, loyalty, and the impact of war, all conveyed through Gilbert Murray's poetic language and vivid character portrayals, making it a significant work in the realm of Greek drama.
