Fool

Meer over het boek

Set in a kingdom rife with deception and familial betrayal, the story follows Pocket, Lear's loyal fool, as he navigates the tumultuous dynamics among Lear's three daughters. Goneril and Regan manipulate their father with flattery, while Cordelia's honesty leads to her disinheritance and exile. The narrative explores themes of loyalty, truth, and the consequences of vanity, all against the backdrop of Lear's tragic descent into madness, influenced by the treacherous Edmund. Pocket's wit adds a layer of humor to the unfolding drama.
