A somewhat different read for me! My knowledge of Shakespeare and his works are minimal and largely based on pop culture references and spoofs, so there is an element of the book I could personally appreciate to the fullest. Given this, I was more drawn to the modern storyline. There were some beautiful quotes I enjoyed as well.
