When Hamlet's father, the King of Denmark, dies suddenly, the country is thrown into confusion with no clear leadership. After his father's ghost reveals that he was poisoned by Hamlet's mother and uncle, Hamlet must grapple with the dissolution of a world he once trusted.

Promoting cross-curricular study, the text also invites readers to engage with contemporary perspectives on modern-day corruption.
