Absolute masterpiece. Perhaps the best-paced of the tragedies I've read thus far. Every scene is crucial. And damn. Iago.

Please don't judge me but this was the first Shakespeare play I really enjoyed. All of Act V is insane and depressing

One of Shakespeare's finest at least in terms of tragedies and human nature under great oppression and lies. What happens when we've convinced ourselves of a truth though all evidence is to the contrary if only we would step back and see it for what it is? Envy, lust, jealousy, manipulation...all such destructive weapons against the innocent who suffer most.

This is not a love story. It is not a tale of absurdities and fools.

This is a tale of what happens when bad company corrupts good morals and the green-eyed monster rears its ugly, poisonous head.
