 One verdict is certain, however, that Shakespeare is, indeed, a genius and has been blessed with the ability to compel readers for 400-500 years. It's an epic tale that needs to be read of the mind-numbing power of jealousy and the unbelievable villainy of Iago. Iago himself is worth the read. 
 Suspend your disbelief, you'll enjoy the story more.
