I'm often thinking about the stories before famous books..how did they come to be and what did it take for them to be discovered. If you wonder as well then this is the perfect book. This book tells about famous writers and sums up various Shakespeare books. I love reading "bathroom readers" because it tells you about a lot of different types of subjects and this book does the same for books and their authors. I've read this book over and over and would recommend anyone who loves books to read it.
