The Susanne

This is a great book! It has loads of inter­est­ing inform­a­tion about Shakespeare, his life, his interests, his time, his theatres, his inspir­a­tions. It seems an easy read as well; I’m just start­ing it now and am plan­ning to spend the summer on it, pick­ing it up now and then when I feel the urge. I like that about non-​fiction: unlike a novel, you can pick it up and put it down again whenever you feel like it and not have to worry about losing momentum. Plus when I’m read­ing a really good novel I get so caught up in the story that I have to finish it before my mind will open to any­thing else. This is on the cur­riculum for my Shakespeare course this autumn and it will pos­sibly be the first ever text­book that I read cover to cover. Amaz­ing. Why not take a look?
