Modern Books Like Romeo And Juliet 소설 & 이야기

he called and then held the door open for us to walk in. Hannah pulled the note out again, giving it a brief skim. "I'll be in the back experiencing betrayal, death, heartbreak, and tragic love. All that is not mine to behold," Hannah breathed out heavily as she walked to the back of the library. She looked at all the titles above the shelves as she walked and then she stopped at the leisure reading section. English literature. "I don't think she meant Garret was in here." Hannah moved to the Shakespeare section and pulled out a book. "Romeo and Juliet." She flipped through the pages of the book and then slid the book back on the shelf when she found nothing. She looked again carefully and t

She’s speechless. I merely recap, verbatim, “The descent into darkness by an antihero in Macbeth. The comedic relief of Much Ado About Nothing. The intensity of Othello. The romanticism and tragedy of Romeo and Juliet, of course. And the magical fantasy of The Tempest. Then... There’s the madness of Hamlet.” “I—” Words apparently fail her. So I give a shrug and modestly say, “They’re not first editions or from the original Globe, but they are from the Globe.”

I smiled and nodded. "Okay, I'm feeling pumped! Let's do this!" Roy grinned. "Thats the spirit. Now, pick a play so we can start practicing." I nodded, my eyes returning to the book. I flipped through the pages, inspecting each play carefully. I flipped the page again, and my eyes landed on it. "This," I said, jabbing a finger to the paper. Roy looked at the book and his eyes brightened. "Romeo and Juliet? That's a good choice."

Reece counters. “How about you be a Romeo? I mean out of all of us, you’re the most romantic, yet you couldn’t think of the most romantic scene in Romeo and Juliet? Throw some small pebbles at her window to let her know you’re outside. Just don’t shout ‘Juliet, oh where art thou, Juliet?’” Tristan suggests. We all turn to look at Tristan. Who would have thought Tristan knew who Romeo and Juliet were? “Hey, I studied the book in school. In case you didn’t know, I minored in literature. If you want to speak the love language fluently, study literature.” He shrugs.

She smirks looking at me. "Nothi-" I got cut of by the teacher "MS. BLACK ARE YOU EVEN LISTENING TO WHAT IM SAYING?!" "Oh you want my opinion?" I ask and the teacher nods. "Well, I think it's neither a romance or tragedy. I think it's just about two young teenagers who were rebelling against their parents or were infuriated with the idea of love. Juliet wanted to rebel and Romeo was throwing a fit about love." "But how? There is not really any proof of that

Most of these books were classics, I took note of that. I wondered if he had read all these books or just bought them and kept them here for decorative purposes. He had a backward mentality, so I guess he never actually read all these. I picked up a book and looked at the title, Romeo and Juliet. For someone who hates love, he sure loves a good romance story. Maybe he likes it because it's a tragedy. Weirdo. I opened up the book and sat on the table there as I flipped through it. I just skimmed over the texts. I had read the book a long time ago. I remember having that discussion with Sebastian not too long ago. I just hated that they didn't have a happy ending.

“He never spoke to them, nor did he ever check on what his Lunas were up to.” “He watches me because he’s afraid I’ll cause trouble.” I cross my arms in frustration. “If I act up, he’ll be happy to criticize me.” Suddenly, Vincent holds out the book he was reading, and I reluctantly take it. It’s a classic novel: Romeo and Juliet. “You read human books?” I ask in surprise and the subject changes. “For entertainment. It might give you a new perspective.” He smiles. “Have you read it?” “Well, I know it’s tragic because of the feud between their families.”

he asked with such politeness that Selene couldn't refuse, and her eyes lit up again. "Yes," she whispered in response. Frederick settled more comfortably in the chair and paid attention, feeling excited like a child. "Romeo and Juliet." "Eh?" "The book I have in my hands is about a tragic romance between Romeo and Juliet, by the author William Shakespeare. Do you still want me to read it?" she asked, unsure if he would accept. "I would be delighted to hear it, my Lady, please," he requested, and Selene nodded.

She hit send, then pushed her cell deep into her pocket, hoping Maria would leave her alone. “Romeo and Juliet,” Mr. Sparrow began, “was not an original story. Shakespeare actually based it on an ancient tale. Like all of Shakespeare’s plays, he found his sources in history. He recycled old stories and adapted them into his own language, in his own time. We like to think that he’s the greatest original writer of all time—but in truth, it would be more accurate to call him the greatest adapter of all time. If here were alive and writing today, he would not win the award for best Original Screenplay—he would win for best Adapted Screenplay. Because none of his stories—not one—were original. Th

"How do you think we should kick off this project? We’re supposed to write a modern retelling of Romeo and Juliet, right? I was thinking we could start with an outline of the plot." I blinked, surprised that he was actually asking me for input instead of just taking charge like most popular guys would. "Oh, um... y–yeah," I stammered, my voice a little higher than usual. "Maybe we could... you know, keep the tragic theme but change the reason they can’t be together? Something more modern?" He nodded, jotting something down in his notebook. "That’s a solid idea. I knew you’d be great at this. You’re always reading something in class—novels, right?"
