Publisher's Synopsis

A perfect introduction to Shakespeare's greatest plays. Charles and Mary Lamb bring vividly alive all the power of 'Hamlet' and 'Othello', the fun of 'As You Like It', and the drama of 'Pericles'. Conveying all of Shakespeare's wit, wisdom and humanity, and never losing the feel of his beautiful language, these tales are classic literature in their own right.

About the Publisher

Puffin

The first ten paperback Penguin books appeared in 1935 costing 6d each (the price of a packet of cigarettes). Since then the Penguin list has developed enormously, but still aims to bring the best writing to the widest possible audience. Penguin Paperbacks now range from Booker Prize-winning contemporary authors, to mass market bestsellers, with successful history, biography and general non-fiction as well.
