10. OUR OPINION
To us this is a fantastic play, and we
would recommend it because we love
romantic stories like this, the order of the
events are perfect and the way to
explain, too. When we finished to read
this play, we knew why it's very
successful.
Shakespeare is a genius for us and we
are thinking to read more plays written
by him.
