Description

A complex exploration of themes such as revenge, madness, and the complexity of human emotion unfolds in this timeless narrative. Set in the somber backdrop of Denmark, the story follows Prince Hamlet as he grapples with the untimely death of his father and the subsequent marriage of his mother to his uncle. When Hamlet encounters the ghost of his father, revealing the truth behind his demise, a dark path of vengeance and moral uncertainty is set into motion.

As Hamlet navigates his sorrow and rage, he confronts the intricacies of love, betrayal, and the fragility of the human spirit. The characters around him, each with their own ambitions and frailties, paint a rich tapestry of life and death, questioning the very nature of existence. With its profound soliloquies and iconic dialogues, the narrative invites readers to reflect on their own moral dilemmas and the haunting specter of fate.

I was brought up reading Shakespeare from an early age as my late father was an English teacher and wanted me to be ‘well read’ and Macbeth was one of my favourites as he would sometimes read the parts with me in his Scottish accent. So when I saw that there were Manga versions of the Shakespeare plays I was curious as to how something that’s traditionally told on the stage would come across in this medium.

I loved it.

The artwork is so well done, and the language of William Shakespeare is woven well into the storytelling, I think these books would be perfect for students who were struggling with the more traditional methods of telling the tale of an overly ambitious laird who murders his way onto the Scottish crown. The emotions the characters experience are so vivid thanks to the style of the artwork and helped draw you into this centuries old tale.

These books should be available in every school library and are a fantastic way of telling stories that even after all these years still draw in so many readers or attendees of the plays in. Whether you’re new to the tales or not - I think these are a great read for any age.

They are so long-winded my god. Try and place a word in I dare you. Not my favourite Shakespeare.
