Reading Hamlet For Fun: It's Harder Than You Think

In preparation of my visit to Kronborg Castle in Helsingør, Denmark this summer, I thought I would re-read Hamlet. This is, after all, the castle where the famous Shakespeare tragedy takes place so it seemed like a great idea at the time. So far I have read about 20 pages but since I have started I intend to finish it! Guess there is a reason they make you read this stuff in high school. I figure it is a great sleep aid on those nights when you need a little extra help.

  1. Hey,

    Came across your blog somehow. Liked it. I'll be coming over to Stockholm, "KTH" to be precise, for my masters. Your posts were definitely an eye opener, lolz. Hope to catch you around there.

    Cheers!

  2. We visited in April and it was lovely. Pack a picnic and enjoy it on the lawn of the castle overlooking the sea. Perfect! http://joshandchelsey.blogspot.com/2011/05/helsingr-denmark.html
