A real delight! I’ve not read any Shakespeare comedy before this and it was a lot of fun.

لم يقتصر شكسبير على تصوير الحب، بل صور بساطة مجموعة من العوام تحاول إنجاز مسرحية كي تعرض أمام الملك، والغيرة ومشاعر الكَبر التي قد تصيب الإنسان على غفلة
ممتعة وحواراتها تلامس القلب بكل حواسه

My least favorite Shakespearean play that I've read thus far. It wasn't funny, and the characters were annoying. The whole thing was too "whimsical" for me. I can understand the appeal this would have to certain people, but not me. Maybe I'm just not a comedy gal, and I should stick to tragedies.

This was my first taste of Shakespeare as I read it in my last year of primary school. It was the perfect play for my age as it was full of wonderful characters, magical scenes and complex and intriguing storylines. A beautiful play that I really enjoyed.

Sua virtude é minha garantia: assim,
Não é noite quando vejo sua face.
Então, penso que não estou à noite,
Nem neste bosque falta companhia,
Pois você, para mim, é o mundo todo.
Como pode ser dito que estou só,
Se o mundo todo está aqui a olhar por mim?
