Sobre el libro

Old King Lear decides to divide his kingdom among his three daughters according to how much each says she loves him. Goneril and Regan flatter him and receive everything; Cordelia, who loves him most, will not perform her love and is banished. Stripped of his power by the two elder daughters, Lear rages on a heath in a storm with his Fool and descends into madness, while in a parallel story the Earl of Gloucester is betrayed by one son and blinded, and saved by the other.

Contexto e importancia

Shakespeare wrote King Lear around 1606, and it is often counted the greatest and the most painful of his tragedies. This is a dramatic reading by a cast of LibriVox volunteers, each taking a part, in about three and a half hours.
