The Tempest

'An inspired edition of Shakespeare's late masterpiece, larded with riches that are at once accessible and challenging to students of The Tempest. These riches include a masterful introduction that sets forth major and minor characters in all their complexity; great page-for-page textual and performance notes that aptly explain the play's obscurities and showcase the many ways given scenes and speeches have been performed; an enlightening guide to the reading experience — 'How to Read the Play as Performance; and brilliant questions for thought and discussion. Mahon and Mucciolo are the perfect guides through this most wondrous and perplexing play.' — Laury Magnus, Professor of Humanities, U.S. Merchant Marine Academy
