Read this on my travels via train from Dearborn to Chicago. Clearly not an exhensive tome, but it was a good read to pass the trip. #43-2023

A novelized version of Shakespeare‘s play. I liked how Marsden gave a backstory to some of the characters, like mentions and scenes from the childhoods of Horatio, Hamlet, and Ophelia. But the language changed noticeably when lines were modernised from Shakespeare‘s vs Marsden‘s own invention - there was a different rhythm and formality to them which made the book feel a bit less cohesive.
