Hamlet, by William Shakespeare

Hamlet: Hamlet, a prince of Denmark, is driven mad by his father's ghost, who makes him believe that his uncle Claudius, his father's brother, killed him. The Ghost says that Claudius killed him, and then married his wife. Hamlet is insane with rage, and because of this, causes his lover, Ophelia, to commit suicide. Ophelia's brother decides to kill Hamlet. Hamlet is bent on killing Claudius, and wouldn't be too fussed if his mother dies as well. There is the inevitable showdown.

Good/creepy/scary. I'm not quite sure whether I liked it. It's the same feeling I was given by Wuthering Heights- confused and creeped out. I felt very sorry for Ophelia. Driven mad by the death of her father and Hamlet- so she commits suicide. Very tragic, but perhaps she could have thought about a better alternative. An unmistakeable tragedy.
Thought it was neat that 'soft' for Shakespeare meant 'hold still, wait'.
