William ShakespeareLove Poems: Sonnets (Paperback)
R199
About
Love sonnets are for romantics, starry-eyed lovers and ardent hearts. And Shakespeare's sonnets are the best ever written. But this is why they are also for cynics, for star-crossed lovers and for those who know the anguish of unrequited love.
Some appear to be written to a young man, some to a woman. And although the poems are full of mystery - why did Shakespeare write them, and to whom? - each one speaks to us from across the centuries of love, hate and the intensity of being alive.
'This is a crazy, all-consuming, feverish and sweaty love; love, in all its uncut, full-strength intensity; an adolescent love' - Don Paterson, Guardian
Wipe Out!
Do you ever wish you could wipe the slate clean and start over fresh? Many of us can only dream of moving away and starting a new life--unless, of course, you end up in the witness protection program.
Let's let our imaginations run wild for a second and imagine we could start over!
Where would you choose to reinvent yourself?
You could move to Amsterdam, take up painting, and live on a houseboat--but with all the South African expats there, you're likely to run into someone you know...
Or how about relocating to a humble home on one of the many rolling hills of the Eastern Cape's Wild Coast? Life would be quieter for sure.
Or you could keep it simple: forget the metaphorical slate and just make sure your dishes are wiped clean with today's deal on Sunlight dishwashing liquid!
