Description
"Shall I compare thee to a summer's day? Thou art more lovely and more " It is one of the most memorable and memorised lines of poetry of all time. But there is no need to stop here because the beginning of one of William Shakespeare's sonnets is the entry point to a treasury of his great verse. 'The Sonnets' contains 154 examples of the one-stanza, 14-line poems written by The Bard. They take you on a sweeping journey through themes including love, infidelity, mortality and destruction - and the previously barely-touched areas of homoeroticism and misogyny. As with his peerless plays, Shakespeare shows his unique gift for touching hearts and challenging minds. This is perfect for fans of T.S. Eliot's 'The Waste Land' and 'The Collected Poems of W. B. Yeats'.
