5.0 out of 5 stars One of Shakespear's Best, 25 Jul 1999
By A Customer
If you have read anything by the Bronte sisters you will love this play, even if you don't love Shakespear. It is excellent practice if you have to read Shakespeare for school. It has every element that makes Shakespeare so wonderful. Read it now!

5.0 out of 5 stars The very best Shakespere has to offer., 7 Jun 1999
By A Customer
Normally, I'd be the first to say that Shakespere is nothing more than an overrated, dead British guy who wrote a few good plays a long time ago. Then, I read Othello. It is a tragic tale of betrayal and lust, with the greatest villian the stage has to offer: IAGO. Iago, in a fit of jealosy after not being promoted by his General, who is Othello, and spreads nasty rumors about his wife and Michail Cassio. The rest is history.

Shakespere uses his characters for everything they're worth. He manipulates and tosses in such great dialoge and deciet that there is no turning back. A great read, even for not Shakespere fans.

4.0 out of 5 stars Challenging, but good!!, 19 April 1999
By A Customer
The book was very good, but it was hard to understand the language. The story is alot like today's times. Desdemona's father did not believe in her chose of a husband, because of the race issue.
