About this product

Product Information

T.S. Eliot once wrote that, "Shakespeare gives the greatest width of human passion," and it is this passion that has traditionally made The Sonnets appealing to literati and laymen alike. Surrounded by mystery, these poems of devotion and jealousy, of a young courtier and a Dark Lady, have been the subject of endless speculation. They are highly mystical and at the same time highly honest; as W. H. Auden wrote, "...what is astonishing about the sonnets, especially when one remembers the age in which they were written, is the impression they make of naked autobiographical confession." Because they are witty, passionate, personal, and often ever bawdy, The Sonnets stand as one of the greatest poetic tributes ever written to a beloved. Elegantly presented in deluxe edition, these 154 beautiful poems are the perfect gift for any man or woman who has ever been in love.

"They are the work of someone whose ear is unerring." --W.H.

  • The "Sugar'd" Sonnets

    The Sonnets, by William Shakespeare is probably the one and only book of poetry that I can read through at least once a month, and find new gems of wisdom with each successive reading. As the reader ages in this ephemeral life, wisdom is gained through experience, time, opportunity, and desire; the sonnets seem to be a living, sentient being that helps to give voice to the emotion and wonder that is love. It never ceases to amaze me that William Shakespeare's sonnets sound so fresh and spot on. To anyone who is alive and has been either blessed or hammered by love, the reading will give solace and insight into this emotion called Love. Peace, Purrcival

  • The real Shakespeare

    Edition in brand new condition and very well printed.
