Beschreibung

Foreword by Jennifer Niven, bestselling author of All the Bright Places

"O Romeo, Romeo, wherefore art thou Romeo?"
A bloody feud. A tangled love. A senseless tragedy that brings two families to their knees.

After a chance meeting at a ball, Romeo Montague and Juliet Capulet fall desperately in love. But their families are locked in a bitter rivalry, their love forbidden. Worse still, Juliet’s family already expect her to marry her suitor, Count Paris.
Determined to save their love, Romeo and Juliet wed in secret. But when a fight erupts that leaves Montagues and Capulets dead, Romeo is banished from Verona, forcing Juliet to take desperate measures that spell tragedy for the star-crossed lovers.
Romeo and Juliet is Shakespeare’s masterclass in tales of love and loss, and the origin of the lovestruck, star-crossed lovers.

Two Households both alike in dignity...

Ein wunderschöner Klassiker

Immernoch des lesens Wert, dabei ist es sehr interessant die Geschichte in Hinblick auf das drama aus der Antike "Pyramus und Thisbe" zu betrachten von dem das Werk stark inspiriert zu sein scheint.
