Macbeth

Personally I am a little confused as to what is happening in the story of Macbeth. I wasn't in school on Tuesday or Wednesday and missed the beginning of the story and therefore had to go back and read it by myself, which made it much more confusing. When Mr. Lunn explains the story to the class and goes over what we read or heard that day, he usually relates the story to modern day which helps me understand it more and gives me the ability to imagine what the story would be like if it were taking place in modern times. There are many interesting aspects to the story, and for Shakespeare it is a fairly decent story, but it is not a story that I would normally enjoy reading.
