Sobre este artículo
London: Faber & Faber, 1967. First paperback edition (issued simultaneously in hardback) of the author's masterpiece. Octavo, original wrappers. Boldly signed by Tom Stoppard on the title page. In near fine condition. Rosencrantz & Guildenstern Are Dead is the fabulously inventive tale of Hamlet as told from the worm’s-eye view of the bewildered Rosencrantz and Guildenstern, two minor characters in Shakespeare’s play. In Tom Stoppard’s best-known work, this Shakespearean Laurel and Hardy finally get a chance to take the lead role, but do so in a world where echoes of Waiting for Godot resound, where reality and illusion intermix, and where fate leads our two heroes to a tragic but inevitable end. "Rosencrantz & Guildenstern Are Dead [is] verbally dazzlingthe most exciting, witty intellectual treat imaginable." (Edith Oliver, The New Yorker).
Sinopsis
"A man talking sense to himself is no madder than a man talking nonsense not to himself. Or just as mad. . .Stark raving sane." Rosencrantz and Guildestern, the two friends of Hamlet, spend this entire book playing games, toying about with philosophical points that they can't quite grasp, and desperately attempt to figure out what in the world is going on around them in this terribly amusing and dark play.
