Notes'O Hamlet

Hamlet's actions early on in the play seemed to indicate that he was emotionally drained and confused at the circumstances of his fathers death....or murder as the case may be. As the play continues to unfold, Hamlet is able to regain his composure. Hamlet's sharp mind and keen sense of strategy gives him an edge over Claudius. Chipping away at his psyche, Hamlet is beginning to set into motion his master plan to end Claudius. If Shakespeare's other works are any indication, I think the rest of the book will end in an unholy rain of death and sorrow. Of course there are two sides to every war. Just as Hamlet is hatching a plan, I'm sure Claudius has some ideas of his own. Which will collide with each other to make for an entertaining read.
