Shall I compare thee to a summer's day? Thou art more lovely and more temperate. Rough winds do shake the darling buds of May, And summer's lease hath all too short a date: No poetic compositions of any author or age have evoked so much admiration and commentary as Shakespeare's sonnets. The identity of the handsome youth, the dark lady and the rival poet have for decades intrigued readers and scholars alike. The lyrical beauty and power of the verses is, however, undeniable and shine through in this volume which is based on the original, written in the last decade of the sixteenth century and published in 1609. All 144 of Shakespeare's sonnets are now collected in this pocket-sized volume, with its charming cover illustrating Shakespeare and a seventeenth-century engraving of the Globe Theatre.
