KING LEAR - Shakespeare Made Easy

"At last - King Lear in a language that everyone can understand

Shakespeare's heart-rendering tale of pride, rejection and love unfolds in this clear, modern version.

The story of an old man's fall from kingship, power and riches to poverty and friendlessness, painfully groping towards real understanding and love, is told in plain, everyday language. The complete original text is laid out side by side with the full modern translation.

Ideal for instant reference and understanding, whether you are reading Shakespeare for pleasure or studying it for an examination".
