"To be or not to be" is a question that requires an answer. At last comes a sequel to the greatest playwright's greatest work... ever Hamlet, Prince of Denmark confronted the enduring issues of life, love, mission, and therefore the will to live or die. Four hundred years in the making, this sequel, Hamlet Resurrected, brings long awaited resolution to these timeless concerns. He had lost everything... utterly Family his mother, his father, and his wicked uncle; his friends his schoolmates, who he tricked into dying in his place; and the woman he chose to love driven mad by him, the murderer of her father and her brother. Yea, in his folly, his selfishness, he wiped out not only his entire family, and the family that he should have added to his own, but also... an entire kingdom. A fool A fool, who woke up to find he'd lost a world. "The clock of reason, the clicking sand, ... and now it all is gone " Where... will... he go? Death pursues, deeds are remembered, eternity draws ever near. And what of that doctrine of living only for this present world? Echoing in the background, through opposing aspects, two characters from Shakespeare's original work return. Marcellus, the former captain of the guard, and now the general of a renegade army; for him, his chief pursuit in life is regaining a world he had known before. Horatio, that would be herald of the best he thought the world could give; consumed by what he called dignity, he hung his life before the Altar of Pride. Hamlet Resurrected presents vivid images in the mind of the reader, as it was meant to do also upon the stage. From its opening scene of live burial to its action filled battles, it surrounds each participant within the world of its story. Gypsies in the forest, explosions, men driven utterly mad, and a hanging upon the sunny Dover Cliffs of England; war, love, and so very much more; this play, replete with dialogue that honors the Bard, will keep you riveted from a haunting beginning to its glorious conclusion. Hamlet Resurrected... at last

"A Modest Proposal", reprinted here, was written over 300 years ago by Jonathan Swift, outspoken voice of the 18th century, and author of "Gulliver's Travels." In his humorous essay, Swift wrote against the British elite's disdain for the starving Irish children, who were then begging in their streets, and at their doors. Other rare works by Swift are also included, such as "A Meditation Upon a Broomstick", "Thoughts on Various Subjects", "A Satirical Elegy", "An Argument Against Abolishing Christianity" and more. "A Modern Proposal" applies Swift's concept to our world today, where the unchaining of hypocrisy could so easily take the satirically suggested turn proposed by Swift. This poignant update will leave you laughing out loud, until you realize how close it comes to identifying where our current society may end. This new satire is then spearheaded by three scathing propositions that could save your life Further balance is provided with the addition of stories, comedy, rhyme, and even a song to help lead your way back to the sanity of a reclaimed world.
