About this listen

A tragedy, a comedy, and a history all rolled into one, the story of the tyrannical Richard III ranks among Shakespeare's most popular plays. Opening with the famous "Now is the winter of our discontent" soliloquy, this masterful work follows its antihero as he plots to steal the throne of England, causing murder and mayhem all along the way. A full cast, including Robert Stephens and Dame Peggy Ashcroft, brings this devilishly entertaining work to life.(P) and ©1967, 1996 HarperCollins Publishers Inc., All Rights Reserved, Caedmon, An Imprint of Harper Audio, A Division of HarperCollins Publishers Classics Drama & Plays Entertainment & Performing Arts Literary History & Criticism Shakespeare England

I couldn’t finish it. The volumes kept going up and down. One moment I could not even hear and the next someone was screaming in my ear. It just wasn’t a pleasant listen.

There needs to be volume control.
