This is a playful book that is tailor-made for readers who want an unstuffy, unpretentious way of enjoying Shakespeare's extraordinary words and imagery. The book demonstrates in a very practical way that Shakespeare, with his richness of language and psychological insight, is surprisingly adaptable to modern times. Writing in a breezy and humorous style, the author presents nearly 150 scenarios that depict modern life - from working for an odious boss to vacationing in an island paradise, from romancing till dawn to picking up after the kids. But now, rather than reacting to these experiences with trite expressions, the reader has a treasure-trove of over four hundred Shakespearean quotations to enrich these moments in amusing, poignant, even sublime ways. Accompanying every quotation in the book is an "everyday English" translation, a remarkable feature that makes it incredibly easy to understand and select the right quotation to fit the circumstance. In addition, a detailed table of contents and a comprehensive index enable readers to readily match scenarios and quotations with their personal life experiences. The book concludes with a tour de force entitled "Fifty Ways To Love Your Shakespeare," which leaves readers thoroughly convinced that, rather than putting Shakespeare on a pedestal, they need to start putting him where he belongs - on the tip of their tongues.

An absolutely joyous, gasp-out-loud achievement. - Stephen Fry A cathedral of consciousness - Shakespeare's uncanny insight into human nature finds us, unearthed here. - LionHeart, artist, poet, and BBC Radio London presenter Shakespeare had an ear and hand that was able to capture our everyday thoughts and emotions, pin them to a page, and express them so well that still today they can make us feel stunned to be seen. 'Better three hours too soon than a minute too late.' 'Make not your thoughts your prisons.' 'Wisely and slow. They stumble that run fast.' 'And I have heard it said, unbidden guests are often welcomest when they're gone.' With a quote for every day of the year, this beautiful book gathers the finest lines from the lesser-known corners of Shakespeare's plays and poems. While you may not be familiar with these 400-year-old phrases, you will be surprised by the immediate, easy resonance they have with modern day-to-day life and, hopefully, inspired to learn a few quotes, say them out loud, and drop them into conversation. Each page bears a gift of Shakespearean delight - around which lies a treasure trove of trivia, miscellaneous fact, and opportunities for reflection. The Crystals - son and father - draw attention to points of daily life, literary, linguistic, and theatrical interest through their entertaining commentary. They offer notes of context for anyone who wants to know who originally said the words, in which play, and why. And finally, the authors provide three indexes, allowing readers to help find the right quote for a task, or to follow-up on a quote's original source. Shakespeare's words are a mirror for us to peer into, to see if any part of ourselves, familiar or strange, is visible. Each day as you read his lines, you'll get glimpses of loves you've known, jealousies you've felt, relationships you've had, and situations you've encountered that bring a smile - or a wince - of familiarity. Everyday Shakespeare shares the simple lines that encapsulate the wondrous complexity of life, and the enduring appeal of the Bard. Shakespeare was not of an age, but for all time. - Ben Jonson
