Juliet and Romeo - David Hewson - Bog

Bag om Juliet and Romeo

It's a story you think you know: the age-old tale of "star-cross'd lovers"; two families at war; a romance, so pure and absolute, fated for a tragic end. Yet, nothing captures the spark, the possibility, and the surprise of Shakespeare's work quite like this....In Juliet and Romeo acclaimed author of European novels David Hewson reworks and expands on the classic story so that it becomes something richer, something new and entirely its own. Much more than a simple love story, it is a brilliant examination of young versus old, hope against despair, and, for Juliet, the search for individual identity at a time when women were regarded as little more than chattel.Told in modern language, with twists and turns that don't appear in the original, Juliet and Romeo is a classic Renaissance love story for today.Performed by Richard Armitage, the original audio version of the work won an audiobook Oscar, the Audie for best original production of 2018.
