About the book

William Shakespeare's The Tempest begins with a shipwreck that brings a group of nobles onto an enchanted island ruled by Prospero, the exiled Duke of Milan. With the aid of the spirit Ariel, Prospero confronts the people responsible for his overthrow while his daughter Miranda encounters the outside world for the first time. The play combines magic, romance and comedy with reflections on power, freedom, forgiveness, colonialism and the nature of theatre itself.
