FOUR TRAGEDIES (CLOTHBOUND CLASSICS) (HB)

Whether it is the ruthless ambition of Macbeth, the folly of Lear, the irresolution of Hamlet or the suspicion of Othello, the theme of the great Shakespearean tragedies is a hero's fall from grace due to a fatal character flaw. And the cause of these tragedies - even when it is murder - is small compared to the calamity that it unleashes. Each play in this collection is accompanied by notes and an introduction. Latest addition to the Penguin Clothbound Classics series.
