Sonnets
INTRODUCTION BY GERMAINE GREER. Shakespeare`s sonnets are lyrical, haunting, beautiful and often breath-taking, representing one of the finest bodies of poetry ever penned. They demonstrate the writer`s skill in capturing the full range of human emotions within a carefully prescribed form and creating something unique in every one. Some are familiar – Shall I compare thee to a summer`s day? – others unexpected, but together they form an extraordinary meditation on the nature of love, lust, beauty and time.
