Publisher's Synopsis
Shakespeare Awakes! Romeo gazes at Juliet, as Juliet sighs to the stars, but poor Paris is left to play with himself! Meanwhile, Hamlet has fouled his stockings, Puck has got his lovers crossed, and where are my yellow tights?!
Here arises a poet out of Shakespeare's dream, with quatrains to herald his plays, and sonnets to celebrate his sonnets! Join this thespian author as the curtain rises on his Hamlet, soar on the wings of his Oberon, mourn with his Malvolio.
Then join Abdiel's whirlwind ride through the performing arts of four continents: from prisoners performing Shakespeare in London to shapeshifting goddesses dancing in Beijing, from a New York symphony playing at Heaven's gate to a Buenos-Aires Tango orchestra riding the rails of Hell!
All this and more awaits you in verses worthy of the Bard himself!
"For lovers of Shakespeare, fine writing, challenging thoughts, and a wondrous sensitive humor, these poems, and the journeys on which they take us, will become part of the psyche. Outstanding!"
