So the missus and I decided to go crazy this year with the Mother of Resolutions: We’re going to read all of Shakespeare’s works in 2017.
To be honest, it’s not like we were sitting around trying to come up with ways to better ourselves. (I mean, there’s only so much you can do, right?) In fact, I blame Twitter, which is where I came across this. “Hmmm,” thought I. “Sounds doable.”
Anyway, we picked up a copy of The Oxford Shakespeare: Complete Works (second edition) and began January 1. I know, we’re barely a week into the month, but we’re still on track—which is more than you can say for the average gym membership this time of year.
Tonight’s reading is Act 5 from Two Gentlemen of Verona, and honestly, I can’t wait.
