Old and new, serious and absurd, tricky and electrifying. A book of words, words, words, for actors and directors, playwrights and poets, readers and speakers. For Shakespeareans and Anti-Shakespeareans and Non-Shakespeareans. A sequence of thirty-three mesmerising epilogue-and-prologue-like eleven-line paragraphs or poems or stanzas. A monologue of monologues. A stream of consciousness.

“Unclassifiable. Classify under poetry, theatre, Shakespeare.” – Carolyn Lloyd Davies

“The poems shake Shakespeare into shimmering new assemblages.” – Emma Smith

“Surprising and haunting.” – Stephen Greenblatt

In this audiobook edition, the poems are read by folk singer Jackie Oates, who animates them with the skill of a consummate performer.
