Description

The Tempest by William Shakespeare A magical and dreamlike tale begins with a storm of epic proportions and a shipwreck. Prospero, banished from Italy, lives on a remote island with his daughter, seeking revenge on the injustice dealt to him by his brother. As he uses his magic, Shakespeare questions the difficulty of distinguishing 'men' from 'monsters', and the realities of justice. Through Prospero's story, Shakespeare explores the complexities of human nature and the consequences of power. With its unique blend of drama, action, and philosophical insight, The Tempest is a thought-provoking exploration of the human condition. This edition features 240 pages of Shakespeare's original text, presented in paperback format.
