Macbeth

by William Shakespeare

A Scottish general's ambition, stoked by witches' prophecies and his wife's ruthless encouragement, leads him to murder King Duncan and descend into paranoia and madness. Shakespeare's tragedy is a devastating study of guilt, power, and the supernatural forces that haunt those who transgress moral boundaries.
