Macbeth

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Shakespeare, William / Von / Zarate, Oscar, PUBLISHER: Workman Publishing, Hundreds of bold-color illustrations keep pace with Shakespeare's dialogue in "The Illustrated Macbeth," an unexpurgated but easy-to-understand, panel-by-panel look at the classic tragedy of ambition and death.

For this new popular format, no one word of text has been edited from the Folio Edition. The European artist Von has worked almost two years painting figures of heroic stance to depict the bloodchilling encounters and haunting soliloquies: Macbeth's prophetic meeting with the Three Sisters, the dark night of Duncan's murder, Lady Macbeth's guilty madness, the moments before the fatal duel with Macduff.
