  • Original meets modern, side by side! It can't be beat!

    I bought this for my younger sister but we have both been really enjoying it. It's so nice to be able and read how it was originally written and have the modern translation right next to it. It has offered us both a very good time and great laughs. It's even gotten used to the point of doing little skits when we get together. Definitely, recommend the story itself, but I offer the highest recommendation on this version. No Fear Shakespeare has hit the mark on what it means to offer modern translations. It was brilliant on their part to offer modern and original side by side. Though we did not get this for this purpose, if they had it when I was reading it in high-school, it would have made my time a lot easier!
