"Four hundred years ago, the audience of the London theater "The Globe" for the first time watched the most famous tragedy by William Shakespeare "Romeo and Juliet". Why does this story of love and death of two young residents of Verona still touch us so much? Perhaps, because these young people, still almost children, when faced with cruelty and injustice of the world did not betray their feeling?
This book is an attempt at retelling one of the most prominent works of literature. And the main thing for us was to make children and adolescents living in today's pragmatic world interested in literary masterpieces representing the greatest achievements of the humankind. We hope that this free paraphrase will inspire your desire to turn to the original..."
