I was very quiet and withdrawn with my own fears and thoughts to contend with. This book showed me that I was not the only one‚ that other people also felt and had to deal with situations

In creating King Lear‚ William Shakespeare set the stage for one of the bleakest portrayals of our world ever to be written. Although this play was written in the early 1600s‚ its dark implications resonate all too easily in our modern world. In King Lear‚ Shakespeare explores many themes about the coldness of the world. But is the natural world unjustified in its cruelty to humankind? Or does humankind invite this torment upon itself with its selfish and unnatural behaviors? This question lies at
