I've been thinking lately that I should read some more classics now that I'm long out of high school and am no longer forced against my will to read them. I found Libby has some full cast audiobooks of Shakespeare and so I may or may not listen to a few.
And honestly, that's the way to do it. Shakespeare wrote plays, not books. Therefore it hits different when you listen/watch it. I actually tried to read Hamlet back in my freshmen year of high school for a class and only got about halfway through. Listening to it I appreciated the story much more.
Shakespeare was the it girl, Hamlet is incredibly written, filled with metaphors and monologues that complicate the characters and a plot that makes you question what's going on. There really are many ways to interpret what's happening in Hamlet. It's kind a ye olden psychological thriller in that way, questioning every character's sanity as Hamlet himself spirals.
I don't really have many intelligent thoughts right now as I listened to it all not to long ago and need to do more research, but yeah if you've been wanting to try out Shakespeare, maybe try a full cast audiobook. It's actually quite entertaining.
