About the book

William Shakespeare's Othello is a tragedy of love, jealousy and manipulation. Othello, a respected military commander, secretly marries Desdemona, but their happiness is threatened by the scheming Iago, who is determined to destroy Othello's trust in those closest to him. Through carefully planted lies and insinuations, Iago convinces Othello that Desdemona has been unfaithful. The resulting jealousy becomes increasingly destructive, leading to one of Shakespeare's most devastating tragedies. The play explores trust, race, love, insecurity, deception and the terrible consequences of allowing suspicion to overpower reason.
