Synopsis

Featuring an introduction to both Shakespeare and Romeoand Juliet, this Scholastic Classics edition of the well-known tragi-comedy is perfect for students and Shakespeare enthusiasts alike.

These violent delights have violent ends

And in their triump die, like fire and powder

Which, as they kiss, consume.

When Romeo and Juliet meet during a chance encounter, they have no idea what lies ahead - for these star-crossed lovers belong to feuding families, and their love will never be accepted by those around them.

Set within a beleaguered city, plagued by gang warfare, Romeo and Juliet mixes comedy and tragedy in what is widely regarded as Shakespeare's most successful play of all.
