NOT a condensed version,
This review is from: Macbeth (Dover Thrift Editions) (Paperback)
Contrary to the two editorial reviews at the top of this page, the Dover Thrift Edition of MacBeth is NOT a condensed version of the play. It is the full text of MacBeth. I am grateful that such an inexpensive paperback is available, as I needed to purchase multiple copies for the students in my English class. Other versions of Shakespeare's plays contain more footnotes or short summaries of each scene and, thus, are more high school student friendly. However, if you provide a good study guide and outline, this edition of MacBeth is a great buy, especially for those of us who sometimes must purchase our own supplies.

Macbeth,
By A Customer
This review is from: Macbeth (Dover Thrift Editions) (Paperback)
Macbeth is a story of one man, his desire for glory and fame, ruins his life, and ultimately ends it. At first Lady Macbeth is the strong one, urging Macbeth to murder the king so he can take his place. But as the story progresses we see Lady Macbeth getting weaker and Macbeth getting stronger. At first Macbeth is afraid and unsure if he wants to go through with all the killings. However, the more praisehe receives for becoming king, the more motivated he becomes to gain more power. --Valerie Ciliento

An amazing value,
This review is from: Macbeth (Dover Thrift Editions) (Paperback)
Dover Thrift Editions-- a godsend to college students everywhere! They even provide a handful of explanatory footnotes; for a dollar, I wasn't expecting any.
