I didn't read it but I did work on the school play which is how I am familiar with the story. I tried reading it but it was too confusing for me since this is really old and has words I'm not familiar with. Still, its a pretty good tragic story.

Absolutely my favorite Shakespeare. Far better than Hamlet. The tragedy, as dramatic as it is, Isn't as over-the-top as Hamlet, and I also appreciate the inclusion of the heroic underdog characters Edgar and Kent
