If Shakespeare were alive today would he say "Oh, how the meek tumble"? Probably not, because that's the kind of demonic line you find spouting from the lips of a villain at the helm of a big-budget movie. Shakespeare would probably refer people to Richard II, his story of a king who opts to surround himself with sycophants and yes-men. Only when his castle is threatened does he realize how grave a mistake he has made. Presented in the clear and readable manner now synonymous with the Signet Classic editions, this version is accompanied by an introduction, notes and commentary, and everything else you need to see what he would say. | Richard Ii by William Shakespeare, Mass Market Paperback | Indigo Chapters
