Splendid review. This is often the case with Shakespeare; one really has to get to know it as a performance before the effect starts to sink in. Plus, it's usually taught terribly. I think a lot of people can relate to this experience with R & J!
You know the saying? "By the time you truly understand the characters, you are too old to play them!!!

So very, very true.
Thank you so much for this review. Now I actually really want to read it. All these famous books are probably meant to bring us something powerful .
the thing is how do i get to read in here??
I agree,
when I was in year 3 I hated it but now because I have read it so many times I have grew to love it . This is because I have read it so many times I have got used to it.

I agree with your first statement i am currently a freshman reading Romeo and Juliet and i find it useless to read about how they fall in love in one night then them getting married after. But , then i see how Romeo and Juliet helps you to see many things like dramatic irony and dramatic language. I also agree with you when you said that You don't know why English teachers assign it to freshman because i feel like adults will better understand it then some freshman .
