"By the pricking of my thumbs, something wicked this way comes." Murder. Madness. Magic. In Macbeth, William Shakespeare unleashes his most haunting tragedy—a gripping exploration of ambition's deadly price.

When brave Scottish general Macbeth encounters three mysterious witches, he receives a chilling prophecy: he shall become king. Consumed by desire and urged on by the ruthless Lady Macbeth, he plunges into a spiral of betrayal, bloodshed, and guilt. But as the crown is won, the cost becomes unbearable.

Written around 1606, The Tragedie of Macbeth is a compact masterpiece of psychological torment, political intrigue, and supernatural foreboding. With unforgettable characters, chilling soliloquies, and iconic imagery, it remains one of Shakespeare's most powerful and performed plays.

"A terrifying meditation on unchecked ambition and moral decay." — The New York Times "Shakespeare's shortest tragedy—yet among his most powerful." — Harold Bloom "Still strikes like lightning on the stage and the page." — Goodreads Reviewer

Perfect for fans of dark literature, dramatic tragedy, and timeless theatre, Macbeth continues to captivate readers and audiences more than 400 years later.
