anndudzinski's review against another edition
I enjoyed the closer look at Shakespeare, but I gave too many books to listen to that I'll enjoy more

I will update with my review once the SMP boycott has ended.
In the meantime...
#SPEAKUPSMP has three demands:
Address and denounce the Islamophobia/racism from their employee.
Offer tangible steps for how they're going to mitigate the harm this employee caused.
Address how, moving forward, they will support and protect their Palestinian, Muslim, and Arab readers, influencers, and authors in addition to their BIPOC readers, influencers, and authors.

When it comes to reading Shakespeare, I’m not a fan (high school in the late 80’s and early 90’s). The older I’ve gotten, I’ve discovered that Shakespeare is fine, depending on the media. I prefer my Shakespeare in performance -
Judi Dench - I’ve not seen her much - I love to hate her as Lady Catherine de Bourgh in Pride and Prejudice (2005) and besides Daniel Craig, she was the best part of the Bond movies, but knowing of her career, her professional longevity, when I was invited to read this, I happily accepted. Engaging and interesting, I enjoyed this one a lot.
Actors, Shakespeare lovers, and fans of Judi Dench will adore this one.
I read this in e-book format, and while I recommend it, I think I would have enjoyed it even more in audiobook format.
Thank you to St. Martin’s Press and NetGalley for the DRC
