This is a wonderful introductory Shakespeare book. The full story is laid out in comic style presentaion. Famous quotes are kept as Shakespeare wrote them, but other text is a more modern, lower reading level text. Includes vocabulary list and discussion on the last page.

FROM THE PUBLISHER
The exciting new series that began in Fall 2004 withMacbeth, A Midsummer Night's Dream, and Henry IV continues...

"Negative charisma is an odd endowment; Iago represents it uniquely in Shakespeare, and most literary incarnations of it since owe much to Iago." - Harold Bloom

Each edition in the Harold Bloom Shakespeare series will include the full text of the play, with editorial revisions and commentary by Harold Bloom.

Lovers of Shakespeare will already know this work. I know of no one who can speak with adequacy and profundity simultaneously regarding The Bard unless it were Shakespeare himself.
