Description

"Shall I compare thee to a summer's day?" Shakespeare's much-quoted sonnets are some of the most beautiful and moving poems in English literature. Dealing with love, beauty and the effects of time, they speak to us as directly now as they spoke to Elizabethan readers.

This handsome edition of Shakespeare's sonnets is based on the Arden Shakespeare edition, making authoritative texts available to the more general reader who wants to read for pleasure rather than study. A must for all Shakespeare and poetry lovers. Published as a small format hardback with colourful jacket, book ribbon and bookplate this is a beautiful collector's edition of some of the greatest poetry in English.
