Book Summary
Employing the same oversize comic-strip format she used for her delightful Tales from Shakespeare (1998), Williams introduces seven more of the Bard's plays--among them, Twelfth Night and King Lear. A contents page disguised as a playbill explains that the characters' words are Shakespeare's and that plot summaries appear beneath the cartoons. The pages are bordered by pictures of rowdy spectators, whose commentary ranges from humorously personal to illuminating observations on the plays. The spreads are jam-packed with intricately detailed, colorful art that invites scrutiny and also conveys the appropriate mood: somber black-and-white with color highlights for Richard the Third, but a much brighter palette for As You Like It. Williams' narrative is simple, the plots are well abstracted, and despite the busy pictures, the text, black set against blocks of white, is easy to distinguish and read.
