Coriolanus

by William Shakespeare, Edward Bernard Koster (Translator)

Overview

De roemrijke Romeinse generaal Coriolanus besluit de politiek in te gaan. Zijn temperament maakt hem echter ongeschikt voor politiek leiderschap, zodat hij al snel wordt afgezet. Op zoek naar eerherstel gaat hij allianties aan waaraan hij uiteindelijk ten onder gaat.

What People are Saying About This

Joshua Rothkopf

“FIVE STARS. Ralph Fiennes has done something truly mighty with his first turn behind the camera. A pounding, modern take on Shakespeare’s most chestthumpingly bellicose tragedy…by ace adapter John Logan. Ralph Fiennes rages into battle like an ambulatory Marlon Brando from Apocalypse Now.”

Editorial Reviews

Gorgeous new Shakespeare paperbacks.” 
—Marlon James, author of A Brief History of Seven Killings

“I have been using the Pelican Shakespeare for years in my lecture course—it's invaluable, the best individual-volume series available for students.”
—Marjorie Garber, William R. Kenan, Jr. Professor of English and Visual and Environmental Studies, Harvard University 

From the Publisher

Sensational and gripping! Vanessa Redgrave is one of the world’s greatest actresses, and director-star Ralph Fiennes and writer John Logan tell a damn good story!
