Bastó la arenga de San Crispín para hacer este libro inolvidable para mí.

Not Shakespeare’s best, in my opinion, but passable.

Sé que dar una miserable estrellita al Enrique V para muchos puede parecer una herejía, pero para mí la obra es sólo un pamfleto patriotero sobre un personaje que me parece una rata egoísta, chaquetera y desagradecida. Cierto que muchos de los villanos de Shakespeare son así o peores, pero lo que me molesta es que aquí sea enaltecido como una figura modelo. Entiendo que los ingleses la veneren, del mismo modo que entiendo, pero no entiendo qué interés puede tener para los demás.

As far as history plays go, an especially right after reading Henry IV, Part One which I LOVED, I wasn't as blown away by this one. Still 3.5 stars for sure!
