Written for readers who have a passion for Shakespeare, Shakespeare's Wordcraft takes a comprehensive look at Shakespeare's stellar use of language devices throughout his plays, devices he used to ink memorable lines like these: - I must be cruel only to be kind - Fair is foul, and foul is fair - Once more unto the breach, dear friends, once more! - Friends, Romans, countrymen, lend me your ears!
