King Lear

by Jennifer Mulherin (Adapter), William Shakespeare

Part of a series which reviews the plays of Shakespeare in the context of Shakespeare's life and times. Each play is summarized, using as much of the original text as possible. The main characters are described - their appearance, their personality and their motivation - and the illustrations display the characters in costume to help the reader relate to the times in which the play is set. This particular book looks at the play "King Lear".

ينقسم الكتاب إلى جزء أول هو مقدمة عن الرواية، كان من الأفضل لو جاء بعد جزء ملخص الرواية. أعجبني الملخص لكني أظن أنه لولا مشاهدتي للمسرحية منذ عدة أيام، لعددته تلخيصا غير كافٍ. ثلاث نجوم للكتاب وخمسة نجوم للرواية التي سأحرص على قراءتها كاملة قريبا.

Book is good for teaching Shakespeare in a story form.
