Gertruda i Klaudije

Gertruda i Klaudije

John Updike

An exciting story about deception in a time when forbidden love was much more dangerous than it is today.

The American king of erudition returned to Hamlet's story trying to make sense of its beginning. He tells the story before the one on stage — when Claudius fell in love with his brother's wife and cowardly killed him. Updike's story is ingeniously full of allusions, interweaving the history of ideas with even more lustful possibilities of adultery... It's great to watch the unraveling of Updike's feelings and affections.
