Description
The immortal tale of star-crossed lovers in a newly updated eBook edition featuring hundreds of hypertext links, scene-by-scene summaries, and more.
In Romeo and Juliet, Shakespeare creates a violent world, in which two young people fall in love. It is not simply that their families disapprove; the Montagues and the Capulets are engaged in a blood feud. In this death-filled setting, the movement from love at first sight to the lovers' final union in death seems almost inevitable. And yet, this exquisitely poetic play has become the quintessential story of young love.
