The Tempest (Collins Classics

Shipwreck puts a party of enemies ashore on an island already governed by the man they wronged. The Tempest by William Shakespeare opens with that storm and works through forgiveness, power, servitude and the limits of control, with Prospero directing events until he decides to stop. Often read as the last play Shakespeare wrote alone, it combines spectacle with some of his most quoted verse, and its questions about mercy and revenge stay open at the close. Collins Classics prints the unabridged play in a paperback sized for study. What buyers should know: • The full play text in the Collins Classics series • Themes of forgiveness, power and freedom for discussion work • A short play, often a first choice for newcomers to Shakespeare • A paperback size that suits classroom and rehearsal use Suited to students, theatre readers and anyone starting with Shakespeare, published in Collins Classics and available at Boipoka.
