Description
First published by Gollancz in 1985, this is a collection of twelve adaptations of Shakespeare plays, presented in narrative form, but using the original dialogue. Readership level: 10+. Colour and b/w illus. by Michael Foreman. Twelve Shakespeare plays presented afresh by Leon Garfield in narrative form. These are not simple retellings, but more like a refashioning of the dramas as stories, which remain true to the essential spirit of the original versions. The author has captured all the richness of character, plot, mood and setting in Shakespeare's works. It is the perfect introduction to Shakespeare for the young. April 1997
