This carefully crafted ebook: "The Complete Works of William Shakespeare" is formatted for your eReader with a functional and detailed table of contents. William Shakespeare is recognized as one of the greatest writers of all time, known for works like "Hamlet," "Much Ado About Nothing," "Romeo and Juliet," "Othello," "The Tempest," and many other works. With the 154 poems and 37 plays of Shakespeare's literary career, his body of works are among the most quoted in literature. Shakespeare created comedies, histories, tragedies, and poetry. Despite the authorship controversies that have surrounded his works, the name of Shakespeare continues to be revered by scholars and writers from around the world. William Shakespeare (1564 – 1616) was an English poet and playwright, widely regarded as the greatest writer in the English language and the world's pre-eminent dramatist. He is often called England's national poet and the "Bard of Avon". His extant works, including some collaborations, consist of about 38 plays, 154 sonnets, two long narrative poems, and a few other verses, the authorship of some of which is uncertain.

Iffy...

Okay, well, it's not 'No Fear Shakespeare", but it does contain a more modern, yet not the easiest, version to read, and basically, you get what you pay for. The modern is in italics, and the altered version is directly under the original sentence. I gave it three stars because it's not working on my Kindle very well. Sometimes, I will tap it to read it, and it will maximize the title like it's about to work, but sometimes it doesn't, and I have to try multiple times to get it to where I can read it. If I had not had this problem, I would have given it four.

The format of the blended version was a little tough to follow on Kindle. I did like that it included the "plain and simple" alongside the Shakespearean text, but it is not formatted great for an e-reader. The simplifications were useful for schoolwork, though, which is what I bought it for.

The product arrived quickly. Be aware that it is about the size of a textbook and is made with 81/2x11 paper. It is privately made and therefore contains some typos. The English side is easy to understand for the most part but it is not always plain and simple, but it is still helpful , just be aware of what you are buying.

The simple explanation is right beside the Shakespearean version! Explains every detail as you are reading. Excellent for students needing clarity!

Kindle edition not the same as the book!

Really frustrating the kindle edition is not the same as the paper back. Ironically you get a French translation. Luckily the kindle version cost nothing but not going to help my 16 year old understand Shakespeare!

This book is excellent. As a teacher I find it brilliant to be able to access the complete works of Shakespeare without having to carry around a big fat book.

There is background, quotes are easily found as are passages or particular scenes.

The addition of flashcards makes this a must have for me.

Bought for daughter who is studying Shakespeare. Kindle edition. She is very happy. Not going to review the actual book, what is there to say - it's Shakespeare! You know what you're getting, or at least you should.

What can you say about Shakespeare that hasn't been said before ? Great to have all his works so handy even though I have a lot of them in real books.
