Title: Oxford edition has wonderful notes, and is great to read
Review: It seems to me it is more helpful to rate and review the edition than the play itself, and this edition is superb. Along with the other Oxford Shakespeare books, this one has outstanding notes that are presented in such a way as to be easy to glance at while reading without breaking rhythm too much. I have found that each time I think to myself, "I don't quite understand," there is a note on point that sets me back on the right track. There are also high-quality but very accessible essays and background information provided after the text of the play.Every time I'm going to read a Shakespearean play, I look for a version in this series; it is certainly worth a couple extra dollars or the frustration of reading from different page numbers than classmates if you are reading for a class.
