Book Synopsis William Shakespeare's "Twelfth Night": A Retelling in Prose by : David Bruce
Book excerpt: This is a retelling in prose of William Shakespeare's comedy ""Twelfth Night."" In it, a pair of twins ? a brother and a sister ? are separated and each thinks that the other dead. Of course, they end up finding each other, and they end up finding romantic partners. A major supporting character is Malvolio, who is guilty of the sin of pride. Other supporting characters are the alcoholic Sir Toby Belch and the foolish Sir Andrew Aguecheek, as well as the wise fool and jester Feste. This retelling is in easy-to-read modern English. Readers may find it useful to read before tackling Shakespeare's early English.
