Review
This has to be one of my favourite Shakespeare plays. Lady Macbeth probably the best female character ever created and the most dramatic to watch on stage as a power-hungry woman disregarding her social position for the advancement of herself and her husband. Yet nor is she entirely a 'fiend-like queen' as she displays moments of familial and maternal affection. Macbeth equally is more than just a 'butcher' wanting to become king. He is torn between ambition and guilt as a series of deaths force him to address his actions and look at how betrayal has affected him as a person. A very deep play which will certainly leave you speechless! If you enjoy it, the contemporary sequel 'Dunsinane' is equally good.
toryah1988 has added Harry Potter And The Order Of The Phoenix to their read list.
Monica has added The Da Vinci Code (Large Print) to their wish list.
