Paperback. Condition: new. McLaughlin, Teresa (illustrator). Paperback. 'Picture the worst crime you can imagine. Now picture yourself doing it. What happens next?' No-Nonsense Macbeth is a short, readable running commentary on one of the English canon's most revered texts, breaking down the play's story and language and offering personal reflections on Shakespeare's audacious tale of ambition, violence and judgement. Frank, conversational and enthusiastically nerdish, Smyth presents an alternative to conventional study guides and their dry, clinical explanations of 'theme', 'character' and 'historical context'. No-Nonsense Macbeth is ideal for curious but confused students, readers and Bardophiles. Paperback-exclusive bonus content: a preview of No-Nonsense Othello.
