Most of everything Hamlet says has multiple meanings. Hamlet’s life is very unclear‚ and at times so are his words. Out of defense‚ he uses puns‚ metaphors‚ and double-entendres for his primary weapon against the people who have deceived him. Hamlet endures a lot. His uncle-- now King Claudius--murdered King

The story is filled with emotion and modernist concepts. The three A’s of modernism‚ anxiety‚ ambiguity‚ and alienation‚ show up prominently in Kafka’s writing.
