Reviewed by Luis ALVLa obra cumbre de Shakespear hablando sobre planteamientos éticos, nos lleva a la tragedia del rey asesinado y su hijo, al que se le plantea vengar a su padre, y el conflicto entre el bien y el mal, vagando en la locura de Hamlet nos adentramos en temas de ética y filosofía hasta llegar al grandioso final.

Reviewed by Carlos R. DiazThis play is a masterpiece in world literature and a cautionary tale for all procrastinators out there. The titular character is a wishy-washy man who can't make up his own mind about the crucial decisions he has to make. One of my favorite quotes in all of literature is contained in this narrative: "Something is rotten in the state of Denmark." I often employ this aforementioned quote in my daily vocabulary. That is all.
