About the book

William Shakespeare's The Winter's Tale begins with King Leontes of Sicilia consumed by jealousy and convinced, without evidence, that his wife Hermione has betrayed him. The consequences fracture his family and kingdom before the play moves into a very different pastoral world in Bohemia. Combining tragedy, comedy, romance and elements of fairy tale, the play explores jealousy, loss, time, forgiveness and the possibility of renewal.
