'An absolute delight... boozy, bawdy, generous-hearted... utterly original and relishable'

"Sunday Times".

Shakespeare has always been a big part of Dominic Dromgoole's life. This is the story of how he has stumbled, shambled and occasionally glided through the years with Shakespeare as his guide - whether reading Julius Caesar aloud to cows as a boy, listening to Peter O'Toole crack dirty jokes at his parents' kitchen table, acting in car-crash student productions or putting on his own.Along the way he shows us what Shakespeare's rough-and-ready genius can teach us about love, war, sex, death, drunkenness, friendship... and just about everything.

'Friendly, inclusive, I warmed to it immediately... A terrific book'

"Evening Standard"
'The book is clearly a triumph... You laugh out loud and cringe in equal measure'

"Spectator"
'Superb... thrillingly entertaining... throbs with vigour, honesty and passion'

"Daily Telegraph"
'A record of a lifelong obsession - articulate, intelligent and passionately set down... Dromgoole's enthusiasm has a sincerity and warmth that are infectious'

"Observer"
'Irresistibly seductive'

"Independent on Sunday"
