The good new : a Tuscan villa, Shakespeare and death
(Book)

Shakespeare wrote more plays about Italy than any other place in his own world. In this memoir, author John Glavin returns to Italy after decades away to teach Shakespeare's Italian plays to contemporary American students. As Glavin notes, "There's Italy, and there's Shakespeare, and there's the Villa. The Villa gets you to a place where you can see yourself in a way that you couldn't if you didn't have Shakespeare as the topic." In the process they all come to understand themselves and their own lives in deep and revealing ways.
