Rezensionen

'Leggatt proves himself a remarkably sensitive and subtle guide, providing engaging, even surprising comments which provoke the reader to think more carefully about Shakespeare's plays. ... this is a fine book of straightforward criticism. For its clarity alone, it is invaluable to anyone interested in Shakespeare: undergraduates will find it endlessly informative (and what's more, they'll understand it), while established scholars will also discover significant gems.'
