miss_merna 's review for:
Othello
by Stephen Orgel, William Shakespeare, Russ McDonald
I read this for English. I thought it would be dreadful but I was rather surprised. Othello will probably be the only shakespeare work that I will ever quite like (with the exception of King Lear). I'm not going to even make a proper review for this because it has been done more often than enough.
I wanted to make a statement on people's confusion due to why Othello kills his wife when he loved her.
Othello was in the verge of doubt ever since he married Desdemona. Although he was a general, he still wasn't that highly respected due to his skin colour. All Iago (referred to as honest Iago) had to do to cause commotion was push that seed of doubt in Othello a little further to his breaking point, it was then jealousy overtook all Othello's morals.
The story had a basic meaning:
"Don't believe everything you hear and only half of what you see"
Including other meanings based on how you interpret it.
