Review by Annotate With Sara
This is the third review I've seen of The Curse of Hester Gardens that mentioned a comparison to Shakespeare. I told myself the first two were flukes, but Annotate With Sara reviewed my book and did a nine-point deep dive into similarities between the text and Shakespeare's tragic play, Macbeth.
"Books and art are always in conversation with each other. It has been a while since a novel so vividly brought up Macbeth for me. Dialogue, plot points, the vast cast members, and the supernatural are elements in The Curse of Hester Gardens that my brain free associated with Macbeth by William Shakespeare. The parallels are big and small."
I warn you that if you haven't already read the book, there are spoilers in the review!
