The retelling of Hamlet from Ophelia's perspective. I bought the book because of the beautiful cover, and while the book was a bit uneven in parts, it's the first time I really felt I could follow Shakespeare's Hamlet. granted, I never tried very hard to figure out Hamlet, but Ophelia made it easy.
