Extract

Many of us often make wrong choices in our lifetime. Queen Gertrude, a woman who chose to remarry only two months after her husband's death, makes a very bad decision that causes many misfortunes in her family. Not only did she rapidly remarry, but also she married her husband's brother, Claudius. However, Gertrude is not the only guilty party is this awful and immoral act. Claudius wanted to have his brother's life so bad he had him killed and than stole his throne and his wife. Gertrude and Claudius' marriage is based on betrayal, immoral desire, and deceitful exploitation.
