Shakespeare's Love Sonnets

By William Shakespeare and Caitlin Keegan

The perfect gift for someone you love, an illustrated collection of love poems from the poet considered to be the greatest writer in the English language.

 


Shakespeare's sonnets are revered the world over for perfectly capturing the torments and joys of love requited or otherwise in just fourteen lines of iambic pentameter. This treasure of a book collects twenty-nine of the bard's most romantic sonnets, each one lovingly illustrated by the talented Caitlin Keegan. Pretty and contemporary, the illustrations tastefully accentuate the depth of sentiment in each sonnet. A brilliant sun rises over the Sonnet 17 ( Shall I compare thee to a summer's day? ) and a graceful animal adorns the Sonnet 19 (Devouring time, blunt thou the lion s paws). A wonderful present for Valentine's Day but appropriate for any spontaneous expression of love, this is an ideal, sophisticated gift for the legions of Shakespeare fans.
