Dating Hamlet: Ophelia's Story

183 pp. | Holt | November, 2002 | Trade ISBN 0-8050-7054-0 $$16.95
(2) YA This clever revisioning of Hamlet, told from Ophelia's point of view, takes as its inspiration the play's theme of appearance vs. reality and creates a whole new story-behind-the-story. In this version, Ophelia isn't passive, crazy, or suicidal in the least--it's all an act. Readers, especially those familiar with the play, will appreciate this amusing, inventive retelling.
