Othello by C.E. Wilson Blog Tour

 
 

Title: Othello (Shakespeare for Everyone Else #2)
Author: C.E. Wilson
Date of Publication: December 23, 2013

Blurb:

Shakespeare's work features some of the most memorable stories and
characters ever created, yet for too many curious readers the
combination of ultra-dense dialogue and unfamiliar historical settings
make tackling the Bard's work something between a tedious chore and a
confusing mess of bird-bolts and quondam carpet-mongers.

While it's nearly impossible to replicate or improve on these works,
it is (thanks to their timeless nature) possible to make them more
accessible to a wider audience.


Excerpt;




“Stop!” Roderick said. “I don’t want to hear about it. If you’re so miserable being his treasurer then quit. Who cares, you know? You’ve already been rejected—”



“So then I’ll have a rep as a quitter? Give me a break, I’ll stick it out. I wasn’t raised to give up when things get shitty. Besides, with me serving under him, I’m pretty sure I’m at an advantage. Orion trusts me – he doesn’t know how my mind works. He thinks I’m perfectly okay being passed over for Micah but he has no idea I’m against him. At the end of the day, I will serve my post well,” he said sarcastically while giving a mock salute. “I care about the school and I care about my reputation, but let me tell you this, Roderick. I’m not the friendly nice guy everyone thinks I am.”



Roderick lifted up his head, looking at his friend curiously. “If Orion really believes you’re working for him then he’s stupider than he looks. But what are we going to do about him dating Devony? How am I supposed to land her for myself if she’s actually with him?”



“I have an idea.”
