Bache redefines the best way to read Shakespeare's plays - creatively, alertly, openmindedly - by illustrating their patterns and systems of structure. His recapitulative approach, a disarmingly direct avenue to the poet's never-ending complexity, is completely accessible to scholars, students, actors and producers whose proper business is to discover and share the plays' depth of meaning. He treats the plays as poetry 'and' theatre. This is a potential milestone in literary criticism for the study and the stage. (Jerry H. Bledsoe, Executive Director, The Virginia Shakespeare Festival)
