‘The work of Shakespeare is virtually infinite’ Jorge Luis BorgesA jealous king, convinced that his wife has been unfaithful and is having another man’s baby, imprisons her and puts her on trial. The child is abandoned to die, but when she is found and raised by a shepherd, it seems redemption may be possible.
