A very interesting rewriting of The Tempest that brings up a lot of points that we talked about in my World Lit class

I read this book for class and was not impressed. A Tempest is taken from Shakespeare's original work and politicized. That's all there is to it.

Had to read this for school. I like this adaptation of Shakespeare’s “The Tempest”, I like what he did with characters and felt like they had more personality
