When Antonio, a Venetian merchant, borrows money from the cynical moneylender, Shylock, to allow his friend Bassanio to court a rich and beautiful heiress, he is forced to sign an ominous bond as security against the loan. Feel the power of this complex story of prejudice, marriage, money and justice in Shakespeare’s original language with a carefully graded modern English paraphrase.
