A soldier of great standing and a newly married man, Othello appears to have everything — until a supposed friend begins to poison his mind with doubts about his wife’s fidelity. What follows is a tragedy of strange, ornate beauty and remarkable psychological power, in which suspicion slowly consumes a good man and innocence is wantonly destroyed. ‘If we wish to know the force of human genius we should read Shakespeare’ William Hazlitt.
