Eugene O'Neill's “Mourning Becomes Electra” (1931) is a modernized retelling of Aeschylus's ancient Greek tragedy, exploring psychological conflict in themes of revenge and family betrayal at a New England seaport in 1865, immediately following the American Civil War. It is widely considered one of O'Neill's masterpieces, contributing significantly to his 1936 Nobel Prize in Literature.
