“All the world’s a stage/And all the men and women merely players/They have their exits and their entrances/And one man in his time plays many parts.”—As You Like It (Act 2, Scene 7). This two-volume leather-bound edition of Shakespeare’s greatest plays deserves a place of prominence in any home library. Among the highlights of The Comedies are As You Like It, Twelfth Night, Love’s Labours Lost, Much Ado About Nothing, The Taming of the Shrew, A Comedy of Errors, and A Midsummer Night’s Dream. Included in The Tragedies are the iconic Hamlet, Romeo and Juliet, King Lear, Antony and Cleopatra, Othello, Julius Caesar, and Macbeth, among many more. As you peruse this impressive compilation of the Bard’s greatest works, you’ll discover that so many of the words, quotes and phrases we use every day in the modern English-speaking world were coined by the brilliant flame-haired actor, playwright, wit and philosopher known as Shakespeare.
