Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Shakespeare in Time of War: Excerpts From the Plays Arranged, With Topical Allusion
How small the public interest in Shakespeare and his work really is becomes apparent when we consider that many of his plays are so rarely enacted - some, indeed, never at all. We glibly accept the assurance that he' was for all time, while we forget to lay to heart that such time is even our own. How is it we so seldom see a performance of King Lear.
