Publisher Description: Have you ever thought of Shakespeare as a fast-paced, comedy-filled, page-turning...novel? Shakespeare plays on stage make for fantastic theatrics But when you read it as a book...some of it's glory can be lost. This novelization of The Merchant of Venice uses a more modern language and narration to capture the story as a novel. The story follows Bassanio, a young Venetian of noble rank, who wishes to woo the beautiful and wealthy heiress Portia of Belmont. This book is part of an expanding series that retells Shakespeare into fiction. |
