        First Edition, Faber, 1971, Hardback with removable protective plastic wrap - Classics - 212 pp. Name of previous owner, the poet Petra Muller, inside.

         Shakespeare's best as chosen by the great English poet.

         For this selection, Hughes deliberately took strong, relatively self-contained passages of Shakespeare's verse out of the plays and arranged them in a pattern, like beads on a string, including the best-known songs and sonnets. The result is at once a revealing sequence of Shakespeare's verse and an anthology of his greatest bits"read in less than a minute, learned in less than five," Hughes remarks in the introduction, and always "capable of striking up a life of their own in the general experience of the reader."
