Cymbeline

Synopsis

Read & co. Classics presents this new beautiful edition of william shakespeare's play, "cymbeline", featuring a specially commissioned new biography of william shakespeare. Although one of shakespeare's less-performed plays, murderous plots and mistaken identities make "cymbeline" a compelling story of intrigue. Set in ancient britain, king cymbeline laments the abduction of his two sons some twenty years prior. His last child, imogen, has secretly married her lover, posthumus, and not her stepbrother, cloten, to which the sinister queen has promised her hand.
