The beautiful story of Romeo and Juliet happens in the Middle Age, in Verona.
There were two important families, the Capulets and the Montagues, they hate each other. One day in the streets of Verona, the servants of the two families start fighting, and the fight ends because the Prince of Verona stopped it. The Capulets celebrate a party, and they haddn't invited the Montagues, but Romeo wanted to went to the party to saw Rosaline.
Finnaly he went to the party and he fell immediatly in love with Juliet. Romeo said that "she is more beautiful than the moon. She is like a dove among crows. I have never loved until now" He forgot Rosaline immediatly. They kissed. After the party, Romeo went to Juliet's house to ask her to marry him. The next day they had married.
In the party, Tybalt saw Romeo, and he wanted to kill him, so then they fought and Romeo killed Tybalt. When the Prince of Verona knew that Tybald was killed by Romeo, he banished Romeo from Verona. Lord Capulet ordered Juliet to marry Paris, but he didn't knew that she was alredy married. Juliet driks a potion to slept for 42 hours and woke up to stay with Romeo, but when Romeo arrived she was still sleeping and he drunk pison. Juliet woke up and saw Romeo dead. She took Romeos dagger and stebbed herself. All that happens because the letter that had to arrive to Rome didn't arrive, all was a mistake, a terrible mistake.
The Prince of Verona ordered to Lord Montague and Lord Capulet to shake hands, to make peace in the beautiful city of Verona. (278)
My favourite quote of the book was one which appears in an exercice "Parting is such sweet sorrow"
