I chose the play of Macbeth.I hear that it is a tragedy, and also quite bloody. My expectations always float very lowly (being a pessimist by nature), but my hopes are quite high (around Deadman Wonderland level). Being Shakespeare, I reckon reading through it will make me think in more Old English. I know nothing of the plot other than what rumour I have heard (mentioned prior), but I have read several of Shakespeare's works, and hope that this book will be significantly different than the others.
