CliffsComplete Othello,
By Jennifer J Anderson (Minneapolis, MN USA) - See all my reviews

Save your money. This study edition of Shakespeare's Othello is attractively laid out, with footnotes in the margins and helpful-looking commentary, but closer inspection reveals sloppy writing with many typos, misplaced modifiers, and (most importantly) serious misinterpretations of the play. Author Kate Maurer clearly needed a good editor, and did not get one. I wanted to throw my copy across the room!Shakespeare deserves better and so do you. Skip this shoddy piece of work and find a better study edition for your Othello studies.
