As You Like It

A classic Shakespeare work, and his best known comedy, this play deals with themes such as love with all its delights, the human experience, city life versus country life, and relationships as a whole. Shakespeare, being a playwright who paved the way for all who were involved in drama since the Elizabethan age, includes in this play a heroine who spends much of the play disguised as a man, and has the most spoken lines of any female character in his, or any other play of the era. Controversial gender-bending aside, the plot is a full one that will leave no reader wanting. Set in France, Rosalind, our heroine, must escape with her cousin and a jester named Touchstone after she is banished by her usurper uncle. Read as she must convince those around her that she is a man, and all the elements of drama, humor, and love that one comes to expect from a Shakespeare classic. A masterpiece that will leave you laughing and cheering for our heroine.
