This is not the side by side translation of this play that the “No Fear Shakespeare” series is known for. I thought it would have a few pictures. But is a comic book version. I returned my copy upon receipt. It would have helped if Barnes and Noble would let Amazon post pictures of a few of the pages.

I can’t believe anyone reads Macbeth without this ‘No Fear’ guide. It is wonderfully helpful!

This is the easiest way to read Shakespeare. One side is “The Bard’s” words and the other is modern English. I highly recommend if reading Shakespeare is like reading another language.

After struggling with my decision to use this book with my senior students, I am finding they are less hesitant to read AND they are enjoying the concepts in this drama! If it were an honors class, I think I would make students read the original text, but for my regular classes, I am very happy with my decision because they are GETTING IT. We are reading the authentic Shakespeare for the really good lines/soliloquys that shouldn’t be missed. This is much better than other renditions that simply paraphrase as far as comprehension is concerned.

The translation is clear and it helps immensely that it is side by side with the actual text. That way it’s easy to fully understand the meaning behing Shakespeare’s language.
