Would you be interested in a book about the childhood of Shakespeare's philosopher-prince? Hamlet is William Shakespeare's best known and most performed play. The protagonist, a fictional Danish prince and 16th-century philosopher who is set the impossible task of dispensing justice without vengeance, is one of the most interesting characters in world literature. The young man whose dead father appears to him as a ghost and tells him that he was murdered by his brother, Hamlet's uncle, who then married the prince's mother, the Queen, must convince himself that his father's undead apparition is legitimate and that he is telling the truth.
