I read some books 100 times, but mostly technical manuals. It is good to have some basic stuff in long term memory of our brain

Author is writer and should put disclaimer "...because it is good for my job and I like it". Hamlet does not apply anywhere.

I read Hamlet and it felt like spoof of itself. It does not have a story, every character dies, too many boiler plate dialogs. Perhaps it was great in 17th century, but there are better things today.



Hamlet doesn't have a story? I don't believe you've even read it.
