HAMLET REVIEW

The book I decided to read this term was Hamlet by William Shakespeare. Like most of his plays it's a tragedy.

I couldn't finish the book yet because it is quite difficult to understand it without reading a lot of times every word but I wanna write about what I read until this moment.

It's about the court on Denmark. Some soldiers see a ghost walking down the streets every night at midnight. This ghost is looking like a king and in fact, the king of Denmark died one month ago under mysterious circumstances. Hamlet, the son of the dead king, is really sad because his mother has already married his oncle. He thinks that someone murdered his father. When he decides to speak to the ghost, it tells him that it's the dead king and that Hamlet has to revenge his death because his own brother (the actual king of Denmark) murdered him to become the king. Hamlet decides to ensure this charge making a plan. Some actors are performing a play which is about a similar story the next evening, and he decides to change a little bit the script. While the actors perform the play, there is a scene which shows the brother of a king murdering a king. At this moment the king of Denmark jumps up and gets really angry, so everybody knows that what the play showed was true. Now Hamlet has got the affirmation he was looking for to revenge his father's death but he is also in really big problems because they want to kill him.
