Macbeth (Turtleback Binding Edition)

In depicting a man who murders to become king, Macbeth teases us with huge questions. Is Macbeth tempted by fate, or by his or his wife's ambition? Why does their success turn to ashes? The line is blurred between Macbeth's evil and his opponents' good, and there are new attitudes toward both witchcraft and gender. The authoritative edition of Macbeth includes: Freshly edited text based on the best early printed version of the play; Newly revised explanatory notes conveniently placed on pages facing the text of the play; Scene-by-scene plot summaries; A key to the play's famous lines and phrases; An introduction to reading Shakespeare's language; An essay by a leading Shakespeare scholar providing a modern perspective on the play; An up-to-date annotated guide to further reading. Turtleback binding is a highly durable alternative to a hardcover or paperback book. The comprehensive cover reinforcement process will drastically combat wear and tear, keeping your favorite books in great condition for years to come! Turtleback books are ideal for any reader, or for use in schools or libraries.
