"The Shakespeare Wars: a conversation, a debate, a polemic, a memoir, a seduction, an ecstasy! [New York Observer columnist] Ron Rosenbaum takes Shakespeare personally, catapulting the plays out of the classroom and into a necessary urgency peopled by actors, directors, scholars, historians, contrarians—but mainly by Falstaff, Hamlet, Lear, and all the ever-living rest. On theater-versus-film Rosenbaum is startling; on Shylock he is fierce; on Harold Bloom he is pugnacious. And on the contemporary power of Shakespeare's own voice he is electrifying. A spectacular book."—Cynthia Ozick
