In the shell

"In the shell" is a story about betrayal and murder, expertly told by one of the most famous writers in the world.
Trudi betrayed her husband John - exchanged a sophisticated intellectual -poet for his landed brother Claude.
But marital treason is not her most terrible act. Together with Claude, Trudy is going to poison her husband.
Does it remind you of anything? Trudi is Gertrude, Claude - Claudius ... Well, of course, Mcueun wrote a novel, primarily causing an allusion to Hamlet. But the modern classic of British literature went beyond his great predecessor.
The storyteller is an unborn child of John and Trudy, an embryo of nine months from conception. He watches what is happening and knows that he will come to this world an orphan and that his mother and uncle are killers
