The Age of Shakespeare

'...Kermode can pack more illumination into a sentence than most people can pack into a paragraph. He is a master at opening a sentence with a remark that makes you think nothing especially important is being said, then turning your expectations upside down by adding a pointed reflection... For such a small book, The Age of Shakespeare is packed with information... this is an excellent book, a distillation of a lifetime's critical reflection into a few pages.'
