![]() Rating: - Greatnessshakespeare has done it again... and thanks to amazon i was allowed to fully enjoy this great masterpiece Rating: - If you want to read Shakespeare its has to be The new folger LibraryIf you ever thought about reading Shakespeare but was turned off or intimidated by the old english, not so with the new folger editions. Your basically reading the play on all the right sided pages , with the left pages reserved for all the definitions and explanations of the sayings and words that might be dificult to understand. This makes it very easy and enjoyable to read. Rating: - ReviewHamlet is a book written by William Shakespeare. The book is very thrilling; it keeps you on your feet throughout the read.

Excuse me? Haven't we heard this before?

Most folks who would read this work know that Shakespeare's plays are broken down, at the top, into two groups: tragedies and comedies. Hamlet is a tragedy -- the limited humor that one finds herein is pretty darn subtle, (e.g., the comment about Englishmen all being mad). I do not criticise "Hamlet" ... Read More
