These tales are the perfect introduction to Shakespeare's greatest
plays. Renowned writers and essayists of the 18th century, siblings
Charles and Mary Lamb vividly bring to life the power of Hamlet and
Othello, the fun of As You Like It and the drama of Pericles.
Their accessible writing never loses the feel of Shakespeare's beautiful
language and humanity, and convey all of his wit and wisdom. These tales
are classic literature in their own right.
