Lady MacBethad: The electrifying story of love, ambition, revenge and murder behind a real life Scottish queen

Product Information

Lady Macbeth then personifies all mothers of early modern England who were condemned for Lady Macbeth's fantasy of infanticide. While away, she strikes up an affair with Sebastian (Cosmo Jarvis), one of the servants hired to tend the estate.

Ich hatte hier leider das Gefühl, dass der Charakter, den ich erlebt habe weit von dem entfernt war, den die Autorin hier schreiben wollte und konnte einfach nicht nachvollziehen, wieso gewisse Charaktere ihr trotzdem immer wieder geholfen haben. What is certainly less uncertain is that he is there as a knock-off of Renly Baratheon in Game Of Thrones. Some of the predictions come true, so Macbeth is taken in even more by the Witches, and this leads to his eventual destruction.Macbeth takes the news that the first prophecy has come true as a clear sign that he could become king.

This is historical fiction, telling the story of the real life Lady Macbeth from Shakespeare's play. In Lady MacBethad, I wanted to tell the story of Gruoch, alluding often to the character in Shakespeare’s play, but also creating a separate and complete identity for her outside of the play. When Macbeth expresses doubts, she uses every trick she can think of to make sure he carries out their plan to murder Duncan.Refusing to be broken in spirit, she retreats first into dreary sleepiness, then drinking, then taking an interest in Sebastian (Cosmo Jarvis), the sexy, truculent young estate worker.
