Pericles, Prince of Tyre (Ebook)

$9.99

A prince who lost everything discovers that love can survive even the cruelest storms.

William Shakespeare's Pericles, Prince of Tyre is a sweeping adventure that spans decades and crosses seas, following a noble prince from triumph to devastation and back again. When Pericles solves a deadly riddle and uncovers a king's incestuous secret, he flees for his life, beginning an odyssey that will test him beyond imagining. He wins a princess through valor, only to lose her in childbirth during a violent storm at sea. Believing his wife dead and his newborn daughter cursed, he leaves the infant Marina with trusted friends and disappears into grief. But Marina grows into a remarkable young woman who survives kidnapping, brothels, and attempts on her life through sheer virtue and intelligence. Years later, a broken Pericles, unrecognizable in his despair, encounters a young woman whose voice and wisdom pierce through his madness—his daughter, though neither knows it yet. What follows is one of Shakespeare's most emotionally powerful recognition scenes and a reunion that defies death itself. Part fairy tale, part spiritual journey, this late romance celebrates the resilience of goodness and the miraculous power of patience, proving that even when fate scatters us across oceans and years, love finds a way home.
