"The Raven himself is hoarse." We've just recently finished up MacBeth. Thank YOu God!For the most part the story was some what melo- dramatic and had a sense of comic relief. Personally the vilianess, Lady Macbeth was admirable and enjoyable. Ultimately, She was the glue to Macbeth's temporary sanity & the entire plot to kill King Duncan, his best friend Banquo, and his son. Throughout the book both of the Macbeths struggle into their untimely demises.
