To read, or not to read… is never the question here. Join us for a year-long literary adventure as we explore modern retellings inspired by Shakespeare’s timeless plays. Each month we’ll dive into a new reimagining and uncover how today’s authors remix the Bard’s stories for a new era.
Whether you're a Shakespeare superfan or someone who only remembers that one line you had to recite in high school, you’re welcome here.
