Cymbeline In Plain and Simple English: A Modern Translation and the Original Version

By William Shakespeare

Book Overview

Think Romeo and Juliet is Shakespeare's greatest love story? Cymbeline might just be his most mature-and most misunderstood.

Filled with deception, mistaken identity, long-lost children, and powerful redemption, Cymbeline blends tragedy, romance, and fairy tale into one of Shakespeare's most complex plays. But its beautiful language and intricate plot can leave modern readers feeling lost.

That's where this edition comes in. With the original text and a modern English translation presented side by side (modern text in italics), readers can experience the full drama and emotion of the play-without the confusion. It's not a summary or adaptation-just a clear, faithful guide to understanding Shakespeare's words.

Whether you're reading for school or just want to enjoy the story without stumbling over the language, this version of Cymbeline makes Shakespeare more accessible than ever.
