Cymbeline

author: Shakespeare, William, Shakespeare
Imogene, the daughter of King Cymbeline, is persecuted by her wicked stepmother, the Queen, and by Cloten, the Queen's doltish son. Disguised as a boy, she sets out to find her husband, the banished Posthumus. On her journey, she unwittingly meets her two brothers, stolen from the court as infants and brought up in rustic innocence, unaware of their princely idenities. Posthumus, meanwhile, has been convinced by the vilainous lachimo that that Imogen is unfaithful to him. This strange, dark story belongs with the group of romance dramas written by Shakespeare toward the end of his career.
