Book Reviews of The Tempest (The Pelican Shakespeare)
Book Review: A thought-provoking yet magical creation
Summary: 5 Stars
The Tempest is a wonderful play that caught my imagination from the minute I began to study it for A level. It is ideal for any escapist yet is also perfect for those who like to delve deeper into intriguing themes. Shakespeare provides not only an enthralling and hilarious plot but also delineates fascinating characters. The personas of Caliban and Prospero tear the reader apart in their feelings towards them which provokes the analysis of such themes as nature and nurture and power and control. Definitely one of Shakespeare's most entertaining and inspiring plays.
