Like almost every good Shakespearean tragedy, King Lear packs a lot into the story: love, revenge, murder and, of course, scandal! What's not to love! If only it wasn't so...Shakespeare sounding!
It's not that Shakespeare is a bad writer--he's obviously one of the greatest; the problem is his plays were written hundreds of years ago and if you don't understand the context, the plays can be really confusing.
If you are struggling to get through King Lear or if you just want a bit more help, then this book is for you!
Inside you will find summaries of each scene, overview of themes and characters, and even a modern version of the play (right next to the original text, so you can read it together)!
If King Lear sounds like a fascinating read...you just wish it were written today (and not hundreds of years ago), then read on!
