there have been numerous literary adaptations and spin-offs from "macbeth". russian novelist nikolay leskov told a variation of the story from lady macbeth's point of view in "lady macbeth of the mtsensk district", which itself became a number of films and an opera by shostakovich. maurice baring's 1911 "the rehearsal" fictionalises shakespeare's company's inept rehearsals for "macbeth's" premiere. gu wuwei's 1916 play "the usurper of state power" adapted both "macbeth" and "hamlet" as a parody of contemporary events in china. the play has been used as a background for detective fiction (as in marvin kaye's 1976 "bullets for macbeth") and, in the case of ngaio marsh's last detective novel light thickens, the play takes centre stage as the rehearsal, production and run of a 'flawless' production is described in absorbing detail (so much so that her biographer describes the novel as effectively marsh's third production of the play). but the play was also used as the basis of james thurber's parody of the whodunit genre "the macbeth murder mystery", in which the protagonist reads "macbeth" applying the conventions of detective stories, and concludes that it must have been macduff who murdered duncan. comics and graphic novels have utilised the play, or have dramatised the circumstances of its inception: superman himself wrote the play for shakespeare in the course of one night, in the 1947 "shakespeare's ghost writer". a cyberpunk version of macbeth titled "mac" appears in the collection "sound & fury: shakespeare goes punk." tolkien particularly liked the prophecy that "the great birnam wood coming to dunsinane hill" would precede macbeth's fall, but was not satisfied by its dramatic solution, and so more grandly invented ents and huorns who defeat the wizard saruman in his the lord of the rings (1954).
