Customer Reviews
Very dramatic and beautiful
I had performed display in high school with my friends I was Casio it was very beautiful the book is even more exciting.
Conspiracy Theory
I would not consider this a happy read. This is the second Shakespeare book i have read after Hamlet. Othello is completely a conspiracy theory and is against modern common sense. The way a small piece of handkerchief has been used as an evidence to show Desdemona losing her chastity is meaningless. The ease with which Lago has been able to manipulate Rodrique, Othello and Cassio is not comprehensible.
