Shakespeare at his best! 😊
I agree with you totally, Loretta. Only read few pages so far, but honestly, I love his writing in this play than any other of his that I have read.

It's definitely way up there on my list Piyangie along with Hamlet and Macbeth! 😊
I haven't read either of the two, Loretta!

Piyangie you must read them! I know you'd enjoy them! 🤗
I''m not a tragedy fan, Loretta. :-) But I would give them a try one day.
I completely agree with you, I'm hoping to read this one again - it's a really beautiful play.

I have never enjoyed reading Shakespeare, though I know I should! But I love the Romeo & Juliet ballet, with Prokofiev’s wonderful music. Your review is thoughtful, as always. Perhaps one day you will persuade me to read this play...

When I was about 12 years old, I received a gift of Shakespeare plays in prose form. That is my first Shakespearean experience. And I loved many of them then. Unfortunately I've lost it.
I only started Shakespearean proper read a year ago, but I have to say I enjoyed the prose form more than the play version. It is funny that although the story is the same, the play lacked some element which I cannot point out. I remember my most loved Shakespearean work to be Twelfth Night. But when I actually read the play, I didn't like it as much as I remembered liking it.
However, in Romeo and Juliet I found a lyrical beauty that I fell in love with. I hope you'll read it someday Trisha. And when you do, I would love to hear what you think about it. Thank you very much for your kind words.
I should read this again. I did this for my O Level Eng. Lit exam and although I liked it I think what took away from my loving it was all the critical analytical essays I had to write for it.

Well that happens when study a literary work rather than enjoying the simple read. :-) I hope you'll like it more whenever you read it again.
