Desdemona: A Play About a Handkerchief

Having slept with Othello's entire encampment, Desdemona revels in her bawdy tales of conquest. Get Desdemona literature books for free.
Her foils and rapt listeners are the other integral and re-imagined women of this Shakespeare tragedy: Emilia, Desdemona's servant and the wife of Iago, and Bianca, now a majestic whore of Cyprus. The reluctantly loyal Emilia pesters Desdemona about a military promotion for her husband. Her motive, however, is that he leave her a wealthy widow, preferably sooner than later. Bianca, now a street-wise, yet painfully naive prostitute, visits Desdemona thinking she is a very good friend and fellow hooker (at least one night a week). Bianca thinks the worst when she soon discovers that Desdemona knows intimate details of the life of her lover, Cassio. Check Desdemona our best literature books for 2013. All books are available in pdf format and downloadable from rapidshare, 4shared, and mediafire.
