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!

*thinks hard* No, I haven't read War and Peace, but I've read Crime and Punishment, and surely that is almost as good?

Also, reading Hamlet is crucial to getting all the jokes in Rosencrantz and Gildenstern Are Dead and the five-minute version of Hamlet.

I had a superior English teacher that year...*sighs wistfully*

Is there a line in Ros and Guil that's NOT funny?

That IS almost as good. In fact, I found it far harder going.

And you have one of the major reasons why everyone should be familiar with Hamlet! I send virtual hugs to your English teacher!
