Norton & Company, 1997 - 403 pagina's "Stanley Wells commands particular attention. . . .In this new book he surveys with common sense, stylish prose, and the insight that comes from a lifetime of study, all the plays and poems, setting them against what is known of their creator's life. . . . He is particularly attentive to theatrical values and alludes regularly to modern stage productions." --Washington Post |
