I have read Hamlet, however it was not this edition. I have seen these editions in store and they are rather tatty looking, the paper is recycled so that's to be expected. These types of books suit people who are limited in cash perhaps about to board a plane and need something to read. If your a student, your teacher will have already have bought specific books prescribed by the examining board - if this is the case do so and purchase that copy because this does not have notes to explain language or anything. The play itself is a wonderful piece of literature concerned by deception, political power, and action vs. inaction, perceived madness and religion. Before reading it (if you studying) you should get context about Denmark ... Read More:

3.Romeo and Juliet (Penguin Popular Classics) by: William Shakespeare June 30, 1994

This work needs no introduction. Two star crossed lovers, divided by family feud, united by love, can ultimately only be together in death. The word "tragedy" was coined for it. It is my favourite of Shakespeare's plays and is the original and best. There is nothing wrong with West Side Story or Shakespeare in Love or even William Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet starring Leonardo di Caprio, but the pure essence of the Bard's poetry is here, in the original. If it doesn't make you cry you have a heart of stone!

4.York Notes on Shakespeare's "Othello" (York Notes Advanced) by: William Shakespeare August 29, 2003
Average Rating: >>More Details		List Price: £6.99 Off The Bookshelf's Price: £4.95 You Save: £2.04 (29%) Prices subject to change. Used Price: £2.05
This study guide weas invaluable to me when I was Doing Othello for my A.S levels as my techer was rubbish. thanks to this book though, it really clarified every aspect of the play for me. I definately would have been lost without it. So if you find Shakespeare a bit difficult to understand, getting this study guide (and those of the other plays) would deffinately be a great help to you.

5.Macbeth (Penguin Popular Classics) by: William Shakespeare May 26, 1994

This book is incredibly boring. This Shakespeare guy is way over-rated. it is written in old English so you need an other book to simply translate it's text. In this day and age you would be insane to read this for fun. Rent a blu-ray disc or go to the cinema or something. On the other hand if you are doing it for school then I guess you have to buy it.

6.Hamlet (Arden Shakespeare: Third) by: William Shakespeare June 01, 2005

In some respects I think it'd be rather presumptuous of me to attempt to review Shakespeare. Someone so well known and influential wouldn't benefit from my opinions on their work, plus there are more scholarly and concise reviews out there. But I can comment on these Arden versions. Of all the Shakespeare I've read I've always found the Arden copies to be well laid out and to have excellent commentary and notes on the text. They really add to your understanding of Shakespeares outstanding plays and introduce you to the depth in his work. They have superb paper quality and are bound well, withstanding repeated readings and intensive study. For your collection of Shakespeare you can't do much better than Arden publications, some are quite hard to get hold ... Read More:

I studied this for my A-levels, which either increases my enjoyment of a book due to greater understanding, or removes some of the magic. For me The Tempest was difficult to quantify, was it merely an allegory for Shakespeare's life, a masterpiece; Shakespeare's only truly original work, or just bland. There are some interesting pieces, mostly the relations between characters, Caliban and Prospero for example. The themes which are raised are the most successful part of the play, particularly the nature/nurture debate, and the question of to what degree human behaviour is governed by habitat. However the plot is thin. Some people arrive on an island, two fall in love and they all get off it again. I found it hard to care what happeened to any of them, ... Read More:

Has anyone noticed that the cover picture is actually a painting of Romeo & Juliet? It struck me as a bit bizarre really, but otherwise it's a really brilliant edition.
