11th century Scotland: this is a place and time where human life does not matter much. A man is worth as much as his deeds in battle, a woman – if she gives birth to healthy sons. Murder is a way to get rid of enemies and a method of succession to the throne. Ruthlessness and courage are prized, while compassion or doubts are a flaw. Therefore, Macbeth’s first crime makes the next ones necessary. The mechanism activated by a single decision will eventually annihilate its architect, taking away his peace of mind. In a world that has once run red with blood, no one has clean hands now.
Macbeth by Agata Duda-Gracz is a story of temptation and guilt, of a germ of the evil that we carry within us, and of antiquity and Christianity’s heritage, tragically intertwined in us. She analyzes the relationships between the characters with great precision: looking for kinships and motives, she reaches to historical sources and creates an ambiguous, moving background for the main threads of the famous drama.
