What a wonderful way to fill your life with Shakespeare! In Shakespeare for Every Day of the Year, you get a new quote from Shakespeare a day - obviously. Some correlate to the day itself Of course March 15th would not be complete with the quote "beware the Ides of March," but other days are filled with delightful bits of prose that are not as well known but equally perfect none the less. I really loved the focus on pieces of all Shakespeare's plays and poems. Each snippet of his writing is quote along with a few interesting facts and discussion. Very easy to digest in these daily, bite-size pieces.

Vooral een cover buy en daardoor kon het al niet mis gaan. Eerst deed ik trouw per dag 1 stukje, maar in de laatste maand gewoon me er doorheen geploegd. Ik vond de informatie die rondom het gekozen stukje tekst stond interessanter dan het schrijfwerk van Shakespeare zelf, juist omdat dit telkens kleine stukjes waren zonder al te veel context van de rest van zijn tekst. A magnificent collection of 365 passages from Shakespeare’s works, for the Shakespeare scholar and neophyte alike. She has hosted poetry events at The Times and The Sunday Times Cheltenham Literature Festival, The Sunday Times Festival of Education and The Oldie Soho Literary Festival.

With Allie Esiri's entertaining and insightful thoughts on each entry, this book will fill your year with wonder, laughter, wisdom and wit.🎭
