Scotland, 11th century . Back in their stronghold after a long fight against the Norwegian armies, Macbeth and Banquo, two valiant warriors, encounter three witches in the storm. Their prophecy is formal: the first will become king, while the second will see his descendants become so. The rest is well known: murders, tragedies and betrayals will make up one of Shakespeare’s most famous texts.
With Macbeth, King of Scotland , Guillaume Sorel and Thomas Day offer a new reading of this founding work. If they are based on the original play, the authors integrate new elements from the Scottish legend at the source of the character and also highlight the very Machiavellian Lady Macbeth, whose real role in Shakespeare is ultimately more secondary. what posterity has remembered. Get ready for an epic as dramatic as it is violent, through pages full of blood and fury, marked with the seal of inevitable death!
A flamboyant and sumptuous album, the essence of which can be summed up in the words of Macbeth himself: ” I have walked so far in blood that if I now ceased to immerse myself in it, going back would be as difficult as ‘go forward. »
