Macbeth in Plain and Simple English by William Shakespeare
Macbeth has everything-murder, madness, witches, ghosts, and ambition gone horribly wrong. But let's be honest: Shakespeare's language can be tough to follow.
That's where this edition comes in. It retains the full original text, placing a line-by-line modern translation next to it in plain, easy-to-follow English. No summaries. No watered-down scenes. Just Shakespeare's story, with clear guidance when you need it.
Whether you're a student tackling an assignment or just someone who wants to enjoy the play without constantly reaching for a dictionary, this book makes Macbeth readable without losing what makes it powerful.
Perfect for high school classrooms, college courses, or personal reading.
At the University of Notre Dame in Indiana, Peter Holland is the McMeel Family Professor of Shakespeare Studies. He was President of the Shakespeare Association of America (2007-8) and Director of the Shakespeare Institute in Stratford-upon-Avon (1997-2002).
