Macbeth (Folger Shakespeare Library)
The notes on the left page of the book make it much more understandable. I don't think I would have been able to understand much of the text without the help of defined words and overviews of scenes that appear on the opposite page to the text. I would definitely recommend this edition of Macbeth for high school reading or adults who want to read Shakespeare.

Murder and mayhem
As it has been a while since I've read Macbeth I'm glad that I read this edition. It was compact but easy to read. The material at the beginning of the book was excellent and helped put the play in context. And of course, as one of Shakespeare's works this is not just one of the most well-known but one of the easiest reads as well. Tragic, but worth reading.

MacBeth (Folger Shakespeare Library)
I could hardly believe my eyes when the book arrived. The book was in great shape and I only paid 1 cent plus shipping for it... It did have some things highlighted, but they were the things that was on my test.
