In a godless world, where is the compass? As atheism gains momentum in today’s world, Hamlet’s answer to that question is particularly relevant. In The Ineffable Prince of Denmark, Collins changes certain particulars of Shakespeare’s tale to create an allegory where the creme de la creme courageously conquer elitism. Collins’ Hamlet lives in a compassless time as ‘out of joint’ as ours. Hamlet’s father has been murdered and his mother stained with adultery. His uncle has taken the throne from Hamlet by bribing the House of Lords. Worse, his uncle will probably name his son heir. What can the idealistic Hamlet do? Feign madness? Become cynical or suicidal? Not this time!
