The Comedy of Errors – ebook
William Shakespeare
The comedy is surprisingly lively, sparkling and witty, despite the fact that the plot is set by conventions that seem to be implausible: two pairs of separated twins, and even with the same names, because of which there are ridiculous confusions. Here, there is the atmosphere of the Italian Renaissance, and the topicality of the Shakespearean era, and some special Greek flavor, and a little lyricism,...Data dostępności:

The ninth book the action of which takes place in the wonderful Land of Oz is indeed a masterpiece.
