I meant to only listen to half of this today, but it was a lot more fun than I expected and I listened to the whole thing almost non-stop. I'm thinking now that I really want to read a copy of this. The only other Shakespeare play I've read was The Tempest, but I think what I heard said about Shakespeare's plays was right - they need to be performed, not read. I've just got a few lingering questions about what went on, things that I wasn't quite able to follow and - if I'm being truthful - probably wasn't paying quite enough attention to.

Considering he carries the name of the book, I expected to have more of him in it.

two pages into this i was sending my friend 3 minute voice notes about claudius. ancient rome hyperfixation is so back.

It was good. I like Shakespeare's plays. I do but the way teachers make you go in dept with the book irritates me because then I don't like the book anymore.

As we gear up for the next presidential campaign, it's either depressing or reassuring that some things (like politics and campaigning) never change. This recording had an all-star cast and is definitely worth a listen.
