A review by whimsicalmeerkat
Macbeth by William Shakespeare

5.0

Edit to below, discovered after re-reading. I confused my passages, I meant the passage that includes "Life's but a walking shadow, a poor player / That struts and frets his hour upon the stage / And then is heard no more."


I can never decide if I like Macbeth, Hamlet, or King Lear best. I've given up trying. This story is haunting. It also contains one of my favorite passages of Shakespeare. It is the part that contains the overused phrase "all the world's a stage," but most people seem to not understand that it was spoken by a madwoman prior to her death. Either way, fantastic as Shakespeare almost always is.
