Romeo and Juliet,
By florencia (artic ocean) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Romeo and Juliet (Everyman's Library (Paper)) (Paperback)
Caterina and FlorenciaWe want to share with you our opinion of this edition of the famous writer William Shakespeare: "Romeo and Juliet". In one hand this book helps us, students, teachers, to incorporate poetry into our minds; and learn things about those ages, for example their customs. Also it helps to improve your English. At first we couldn't understand the way this tragedy was set up. But then, with our teacher's help, we undestood the main ideas. We believe it's very difficult to analise, because of the form in which it is written, like when Romeo compares Juliet with light: "Doth teach tourches to burn right". Also when Juliet talkes with Romeo in the balcony scene: "How cam'st thou hither, tell me, and wherefore?" Although the ending was very tragic we liked it because it was original. No one would think that the star-cross lovers would end with the feudge by commiting suicide. In conclusion it is a long, difficult and boring book. We do not recomend it to you, students, if you read it without a teacher, expert or dictionary by your side. Thank you...

Complex Love,
By "critical-reader" (USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Romeo and Juliet (Mass Market Paperback)
I have seen all movie versions about Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet and still love the book everytime I revisit the story. Every word captivates the reader into truly feeling the passion and tragedy of these two lovers. Even a character such as Tybalt Capulet won me over as far as description goes. Shakespearian writing is very much complex and confusing but it has a touch romance and anger which adds to the emotion of the story. Read this classic tragedy!

Best Shakespeare ever!,
By
This review is from: Romeo and Juliet (Paperback)
Romeo and Juliet is the best of Shakespeares work ever. Everyone knows the story, but once you read it, it brings the meaning and connection to a different level. The language is beautiful. The words passed betweem Romeo and his love are so moving, you read them over and over. Even if you don't understand what they are saying, you'll still get the general idea and fall in love with this forbidden romance. Even though its a sad ending. The tragedy just adds more to the play. A magnificent book...you have to read it.
