About William Shakespeare

William Shakespeare was born in April 1564 in the town of Stratford-upon-Avon, on England’s Avon River. When he was eighteen, he married Anne Hathaway. The couple had three children—an older daughter Susanna and twins, Judith and Hamnet. Hamnet, Shakespeare’s only son, died in childhood. The bulk of Shakespeare’s working life was spent in the theater world of London, where he established himself professionally by the early 1590s. He enjoyed success not only as a playwright and poet, but also as an actor and shareholder in an acting company. Although some think that sometime between 1610 and 1613 Shakespeare retired from the theater and returned home to Stratford, where he died in 1616, others believe that he may have continued to work in London until close to his death.

I'm not a majorly romantic person, but I can be quite the fool for literary romance. Show me a good love poem and I might just believe it's all real. As such, I couldn't pass up the chance to indulge in some of the best love poems, stories and letters narrated beautifully. Thanks to Thomas Nelson an......more

This was a lovely collection of poems, short stories and letters, all centering on the theme of love in some way. The full cast for the audiobook was a delight, with different people with different accents reading the various items. I think on the whole, that this would work better as a book, becaus......more
