About the book

William Shakespeare's Richard III follows the ruthless rise of Richard, Duke of Gloucester, as he schemes his way toward the English throne during the final phase of the Wars of the Roses. Charismatic, witty and openly ambitious, Richard manipulates allies and enemies alike while the consequences of his actions accumulate around him. The play explores power, propaganda, conscience, legitimacy and the seductive theatricality of political villainy.
