One of the famous Greek tragedy, that focuses on the idea that man can't escape their destiny. A premonition was made that Oedipus would kill his father. So, the king (father) abandon his son. He eventually grows up and return to seek the truth of his abandonment. However, just like it was prophecies he ends up killing the king and marrying the queen. The sad part about it is that the king was his father and the queen is his mother. Sadly, the mother eventually kills herself and Oedipus blinds himself.
