Reviews

'Egan's enthusiasm for his subject is infectious ... this intriguing book offers more proof, if any where needed, of Shakespeare's continuing relevance to the 21st century.' - www.britishtheatreguide.info/

'Egan's purpose is to read Shakespeare in an entirely new context. I hope he succeeds in his purpose and that his book will be widely read and its lessons understood.' - Renaissance Quarterly Review
