- Pericles EnglishFair warning, the first couple of acts are clunky (Shakespeare probably didn't write them), but stick around for Marina, who talks her way out of a brothel with sheer moral force, and a father-daughter reunion that can leave you quietly wrecked. Strange, sea-tossed, worth it.
- Poetry EnglishYou get the sonnets’ shifting voices, from tender devotion to jealousy and self-reproach, alongside the lush, mischievous stories of Venus and Adonis and The Rape of Lucrece. Read it slowly; the wordplay can feel dense, but individual lines keep opening up long after you’ve put it down.
