Features: The adapted works in this book are the four most famous tragedies from Shakespeare's plays: "Hamlet," "Romeo and Juliet," "King Lear," and "Macbeth." Most of Shakespeare's tragedies were written in his later years. The light-hearted and romantic tone of his early comedies had faded away by then. At this point, he had gained a deeper understanding of real life, and the political turmoil, social conflicts, and other issues of the time were reflected in his tragedies with sharpness and depth.
