Title: Challenging, but good!
Review: I only started reading Shakespeare this summer, yet I have become a fan. As a non-native English speaker I struggle with the language, but I still enjoy Shakespeare's writing.This play is not called Shakespeare's greatest tragedy for nothing. This is a story of hate, lies and evil. The protagonist Othello, a black general, and his beautiful wife, Desdemona, a white senator's daughter, are deeply in love. Yet, his ensign Iago is able to manipulate Othello into believing his wife is cheating on him.This play shows how easily a perfectly honest man can be manipulated to the point where he is capable of killing the person he loves.A powerful play. Highly recommended!PS: If you buy the book in "the New Penguin" edition you will find in the beginning of the book a good introduction explaining the play and the language, a little bit on the history, which you will find helpful as you get on to read the play.
