The Winter's Tale is by William Shakespeare. A classic drama by the greatest writer in the English language. King Leontes believes his pregnant wife has cheated on him, he goes crazy with jealousy. Even though she is cleared by the oracle at Delphi, he denies the god and sends his baby daughter to be abandoned and die. His son dies, his wife dies and Leontes repents, but it's too late - or is it? One of Shakespeare's final plays, and I believe one of his finest.
Ratings: 10th grade - 10 out of 10.
