Review Quotes:
'This book is quite unlike any I have encountered in over forty years of teaching Shakespeare. Whilst very simply expressed it succeeds in taking the reader beyond mere plot and to a better understanding of Shakespeare's craft, which can be applied to any of his plays. Language that may seem difficult at first soon becomes understandable. I think it would be an invaluable text for new teachers of Shakespeare, and I can imagine it being devoured by bright Year 12 students. I especially loved Lucy's comment about playing Shakespeare, climbing into the sandpit. This brilliantly and aptly captured my approach to teaching Shakespeare, making it accessible and enjoyable to all students, not a tedious task to be endured.'
