Fun read. First Shakespeare play I’ve read since studying them in highschool. 

Enjoyed comparing to Margaret Attwood’s Hagseed to see the story within a story. Also loved learning about the different superstitions of the time (ex: hedgehogs as gremlins). 

Really appreciated the 
annotations and notes that made the play easier to understand.
