The original dialogue is also interspersed within the book’s text. Quotes from Macbeth head each of the chapters and sub-chapters and indicate a new character is speaking. Lady Mary, for example, is only fourteen (and, by the end of the book, is on her fourth engagement). In my opinion, it makes it more exciting and relevant to young adult readers, as most of the characters are young adults themselves. ![]() These points of view give readers a new look at an old piece of literature. These characters present the tragedy of Macbeth from their own points of view and provide readers with a very different glimpse of this tale. This retelling of Macbeth follows Mary, a ward of Lord and Lady Macbeth, and several other characters that were not vital or even present in the original play: Fleance, son of Banquo Seyton, one of Macbeth’s lackeys Ildred and Swin, servants in the Macbeth household and a few other characters. ![]() ![]() Cooney’s Enter Three Witches may have just changed my mind–at least when it comes to Macbeth.

No GOP elected official can risk being seen letting bullied LGBT kids know that life isn't high school and that it will get better for them.

It's not that he, like untold millions of similar egalitarian spirits throughout history, was unaware that humans have a propensity to calculate. Rather than seeing himself as human because he could make economic calculations, the hunter insisted that being truly human meant refusing to make such calculations, refusing to measure or remember who had given what to whom, for the precise reason that doing so would inevitably create a world where we began "comparing power with power, measuring, calculating" and reducing each other to slaves or dogs through debt.

Up here we say that by gifts one makes slaves and by whips one makes dogs. We don't like to hear anybody say thanks for that. "And since we are human we help each other.
