One of Shakespeare’s most unusual and incomplete-feeling plays, Timon of Athens traces the parabola of a wealthy Athenian who gives everything away and is repaid with abandonment, then retreats from the city in total misanthropy. The play’s lack of a love interest and its unrelenting bitterness make it unlike any other in the canon.

Probably co-written with Thomas Middleton and left in an unfinished state, Timon of Athens is a fascinating object of study. This free EPUB is cleanly formatted for any e-reader.
