Review of "William Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet" on 'Goodreads'
4 stars
Not my favourite play, but I still appreciate the artistry of the layered meanings in many of the exchanges.
On another re-read, there's enough humour here to warrant another star. While the primary narrative is still lacking a bit of the subtlety that we see in some of Shakespeare's later (more philosophical) works, there are still some great lines, and a lot of fun.
