Книга: The Merchant of Venice. Reader. Книга для чтения

Antonio is a wealthy and popular merchant in Venice. His friend Bassanio needs money to travel to Belmont, where he hopes he can marry the beautiful Portia. Antonio has no cash, so he goes to Shylock, a moneylender. Shylock will end the money, but on one condition: if Antonio does not pay him back on time, Shylock can take "a pound of flesh" from Antonio. Will Antonio lose his life so that Bassanio can marry the woman he loves?
