As You Like It
As You Like It is perhaps Shakespeare's sunniest comedy, but there are patches of shade amidst the love-drenched brightness. Political corruption, fraternal rivalry, and melancholy all serve as thematic counterpoints to Shakespeare's investigation of how release from the constraints of court, city, and even gender can permit a profound development of the self. In this manga, the Arcadian beauty of...Paperback$2295Unit price /UnavailableAvailableShips in 4-6 weeks -

Conflict explodes when Romeo - a bleached-blonde, well-dressed rock star - falls in love with Juliet, the...Paperback$2295Unit price /UnavailableAvailableShips in 4-6 weeks -
