A nice introduction to the life and works of Shakespeare for anyone looking for a handy little reference book. There’s a short biography, sections on words and phrases owed to him (very interesting), a glossary of characters and brief descriptions of each of the plays, so this provides an excellent bluffer’s guide as well as an introduction!

Thanks to Netgalley and the publisher for an advance copy in return for an honest review.

This is interesting as someone who doesn’t know much about Shakespeare - I can imagine looking at this book closer when an opportunity to discuss the plats arises. I know someone who works at the globe so I can see the day coming! It’s a really simple easy look at his life and the plays.
Thanks NetGalley for letting me read and review.

This book was so good! So well written! The characters are so good. The story is something else! I really loved every single second of it.
