Summary
A flamboyant rereading of the myth of ShakespeareScotland, 11th century. Returning to their stronghold after a long fight against the Norwegian armies, Macbeth and Banquo, two valiant warriors, encountering three witches under the storm. Their prophecy is clear: the first will become king, while the second will see his descendants become king. The rest is known: murders, dramas and betrayals will compose one of Shakespeare''s most famous texts. With Macbeth, King of Scotland, Guillaume Sorel and Thomas Day offer a new reading of this founding work. If they are based on the original play, the authors integrate new elements from the Scottish legend at the source of the character and also highlight the very Machiavellian Lady Macbeth, whose real role in Shakespeare is ultimately more secondary than what posterity has retained. Prepare yourself for an epic as dramatic as it is violent, through pages full of blood and fury, marked with the seal of inevitable death! A flamboyant and sumptuous album, the essence of which is summed up in the words of Macbeth himself: “I have walked so far in the blood that if I stopped plunging into it now, going back would be as difficult as going forward. »
