Solid app puts every Shakespeare play, sonnet on your phone
When I graduated from high school back in the days when monstrous thunder lizards still roamed the earth, my parents gave me a present—The Complete Signet Classic Shakespeare. This handsome bound volume contains 38 plays (each with its own introductory essay); five poems (including two the book tantalizingly identifies as “of doubtful authenticity”); 154 sonnets; and assorted scene-setting introductions, historical data, and appendices. You’ll find all of this in 1,773 pages crammed into a book that, should you drop it on your foot, will probably break one of your toes.
I am relearning the works of Shakespeare while on the go. I am not much of a book person and would not carry one around with me, but this is always with me and I like to read it while waiting for appointments or on the go. This app lets me relearn the plays I learned about in school but have forgoten over time.
