i’m not completely sure why it has taken me this long to actually sit down to read this wonderful play, but it did and i am ashamed!!!!! 
out of fear of repeating what thousands of people have  said already, i will keep this short. 

what a truly heart wrenching tale of love and loss and war and all of those themes combined. all of it was painfully good, but i think the final scene of hamlet dying in horatio’s arms is what did it for me. loss and love are so deftly entwined and it fucking hurts goddamnit.
thanks for another banger shakey. i am in pain.
