Why I like my work

Brammers: Not having read War and Peace is one thing, but not having read Hamlet? It only takes an hour and a half!

Workmate: And it rhymes!

Have you ever seen Ken Branagh's Henry V? More exciting than The Dark Knight! (I love Shakespeare, but he is often very poorly taught.)

No .. *hangs head in shame*

I need to catch up with a ton of readings after school is done. Honestly, much of my fears in literature came from the fact that I was made to read them before I was capable. I think I will enjoy them all much more these days!

I can sympathise, Dad took me to see King Lear when I was 5 and I had an existential crisis for about 20 years after that. Try them again, you WILL enjoy them more. And I think it's quite kosher to watch the film versions as the plays are all meant to be seen.
