About the book

William Shakespeare's Hamlet is one of the most famous tragedies in world literature. Prince Hamlet of Denmark is devastated by the death of his father and disturbed by the rapid remarriage of his mother, Queen Gertrude, to his uncle Claudius, who has now taken the throne. When the ghost of Hamlet's father claims that Claudius murdered him, Hamlet becomes consumed by the need to discover the truth and seek revenge. The play explores grief, madness, mortality, betrayal, conscience and the difficulty of action, while following Hamlet's increasingly tragic confrontation with the corruption surrounding him.
