A new edition of William Shakespeare's classic play, The Winter's Tale. While often classified among Shakespeare's comedies, The Winter's Tale defies categorization and is often included among Shakespeare's problem plays -- plays characterized by their complex and ambiguous tone, often shifting between comic and dark psychological drama. The Winter's Tale is the story of the jealous Leontes, the King of Sicily, who wrongly suspects that the father of his newborn daughter Perdita is actually his best friend Polixenes, the King of Bohemia. Falsely accusing his wife Hermione of infidelity, Hermione dies and the infant Perdita is exiled to be raised by shepherds, before through a series of unlikely events she is reunited with Leontes sixteen years later. A story of jealousy, love, and redemption that features some of Shakespeare's most captivating language, The Winter's Tale remains a must-read for any student of English literature for its brilliant exploration of human emotion and the power of forgiveness. The Winter's Tale is a timeless work of art that will leave readers moved and inspired.
