BR 2-01: Hamlet

''The rest is silence.'' (Shakespeare, 2009, p.63)

This is William Shakespeare's famous story, Hamlet. It is one of the his four tragedy and it it very sad story.

First, I thought that this story is fear or heartless when I saw the cover. I don't like a story like that, but I read it because it was written by William Shakespeare.

It was good things to Hamlet could meet his father even he is a ghost because Hamlet was miserable since his father dead. The new king is stupid. If he has married with Hamlet's mother just one month after the king was dead, the new king must have to be distrusted. What the new king did made everyone unhappy. If he didn't do that things, everyone were saved from misery. He finally killed 5 persons.

I'm sad to Hamlet was dead. He could revenge the new king but people around him were dead, even his mother. What Hamlet's friend, Horatio could be alive is only good things. I thought that revenge can not make anything. The rest is silence, as Shakespeare said.
