Like all Shakespeare comedies, this comedy bends the rules for comedy, and yet, as it veers off into what could potentially have been a darker twist on the human condition snuck into a mad-cap farce, Shakespeare...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/13653949">more...</a>]]></body>

It's one of his earlier comedies, and, as other have noted, it's not really on the level of his best work.
