A Midsummer Night's Dream (Dover Thrift Editions: Plays)

Useful for local class at the senior center

I have read and reread “A Midsummer Night’s Dream” by William Shakespeare quite a few times. I love the use of Rhyme in this comedy! When in doubt, read Shakespeare!

Great cheap edition of the play with (as I wanted) minimal footnotes. BUT this edition doesn't include line numbers, which is a key component for identification/quoting along with act and scene numbers. So no line numbers is a big detraction when needed in an academic setting.

It's going to be a gift, along with about 39 other books, to give the gift of a library collection.

What a deal. If you ever want this script, order from this company for this edition. Not only is the script a great price but the order was shipped to me in Hawaii very quickly. The whole cast loves the scripts, as well as myself.

The book came it and it was a lot thinner than expected, but that's actually a good thing for me. The play itself is funny and different from any other Shakespeare's works.

A good cheap way to read the classics, and I buy these so that I don't write in my larger Norton Shakespeare (so I can return it, LOL). I don't feel bad trashing these with notes and dogears.But, there are no line numbers for references, so to do that I have to refer to another edition.These are great however, and usually available in the 4 for 3 promotion.The play itself? Classic!

The book is good, the text reasonable, and the introduction a little bare-bones but sufficient, but please do be aware that this particular copy DOES NOT come with line numbers. It's good for light reading but perhaps not essay writing.
