Product Description

Written in 1593, King Richard III is one of Shakespeare's earliest plays. This play differs from its predecessors, being amore structured piece, examining the development and motivations of a single character, Richard Duke of Gloucester, who will stop at nothing to gain control of the throne occupied by his brother Edward IV.

Richard III is a self-motivating character who defies determinism (a life preordained by God) and sets his life on a course chosen by his own will and desire, as he puns in the opening soliloquy: "I am determined to be a villain. Determined by birth and God, and determined in the other sense, by his own will."

Format:Audio CD
This audio book is a fantastic work of art. The play is well spoken and very well acted.When listening to it one feels as if sitting in a theatre. The play comes alive in front of your inner eye, you forget where you are and what you do. You'll be thrilled!

Richard III 11 Jun 2005
Format:Audio CD
If studying this novel the CD works brilliantly alongside it, you can hear HOW the lines would be delivered and get a better overall effect of the play! Def worth it
