Bill Bryson on Shakespeare
Sunday 1st May 2016
Quote of the month: “When we reflect upon the works of William Shakespeare it is of course an amazement to consider that one man could have produced such a sumptuous, wise, varied, thrilling, ever-delighting body of work, but that is of course the hallmark of genius. Only one man had the circumstances and gifts to give us such incomparable works, and William Shakespeare of Stratford was unquestionably that man — whoever he was.” (Bill Bryson’s Shakespeare: The World as a Stage)
