Negative Positive
Title: a good year, a good book
Review: nicely done, sometimes a bit long, far superior and more relevant and organized to his other book on who wrote shakespeare. More like Shakespeare in context than shakespeare in love. It sets the meanings of the plays in closer context than usual (relevance of Essex's Ireland campaign, etc) but of course one wonders whether, although the information is useful for "originalist" views, it still doesn't deflect from understanding the universal appeal. Some of it could be the basis of a PBS program
Is the review positive or negative?
