Politics, romance, murder, madness, magic--it's all here in this handsome volume of twelve abridged prose retellings of some of the Bard's most famous plays. Each story begins with an iconic quote and a cast of characters in portrait ovals; the text is modernized and accessible. Color-saturated, textural collages lavishly illustrate every spread. End matter includes a complete list of Shakespeare plays.
