HarperCollins is proud to present its new range of best-loved, essential classics. 'Blow, winds, and crack your cheeks! rage! blow!' Epic and tragic in its scope, King Lear explores a king's demise into madness and insanity when he is betrayed by two of his manipulative and scheming daughters. It is Cordelia, the third and only daughter who refuses to flatter her father to deceive, who is banished from the kingdom, leading to dramatic and tumultuous events.

One of Shakespeare's greatest comedies, from the rhetoric of Leonato's opening lines to Benedick's last pun. The variety ranges from Dogberry's anxiety to be writ down as an ass, to the sentiment in Claudio's penance - yet it is Beatrice and Benedick who carry off the prize in the end.

A clear, easy-to-read, students edition of Shakespeare's plays and poetry with a glossary of obsolete words. Large format, smooth paper, printed in Italy to overcome earlier reported printing problems. Bestselling edition from Geddes and Grosset. Ideal for students.
