Title: Hamlet, Prince of Denmark: A Novel, by A. J. Hartley and David
Hewson, narrated by Richard Armitage
When did I first read the book: when it first came out as an audiobook in 2014
One of the things that has bothered me since having to read Shakespeare in high school is that I never understood what all the characters were saying. It bugs me that this remained so over much of my teenage years and adulthood, even though I saw many of the plays being performed, as well as reading them, or parts of them, numerous times over the years.
This book is a game changer. It keeps me riveted to the story every time I listen to it. I finally have a sense of knowing the story in a way that I never did before.
