Carbone, Courtney Macbeth #killingit, 81 pages. Random House, 2016. $10.
Language: PG (uses several abbreviations that included F for the
‘f’-word.)
How would Macbeth play out with modern social media? Carbone does an excellent job of translating
the classic play into texts, notes, and other social media repartee.
What a great way to look at what students consider old,
stodgy material. While you might think
this would be most useful for a resource class or such, you should not rule it
out to read with a document camera to any Language Arts class to help the
understand the flow and themes of Shakespeare’s works before they tangle with
the Bard’s own words. There are now four
books in this series.
