This book considers the question, with answers inspired by Shakespeare's classic tragedy: Macbeth Many of us wrestle with daunting life-choice questions from time to time: what should I be aiming for? Am I being ambitious enough? Has an excess of ambition led me astray? Fair or Foul considers different aspects of ambition and its place in our lives. It asks: what does success mean? When is enough enough? And is Lady Macbeth right to suggest that only those with the 'illness' of ambition achieve the highest goals? Stefan draws on the major themes of Macbeth and discusses how they can be applied to modern life. Expect to discover how ambition and success work together, how attitudes have shifted over time, and how gender roles have an impact on our goals. Incisive, contemporary and accessible, this book is for anyone who is looking for a change of direction or emphasis on how to move forward. It will also provide consolation, amusement and plenty of insightful meditations on the complex nature of ambition.
