Revue de presse

remains the mo,st distinctive, and in many ways the best, one-volume Shakespeare currently available and will not be easily replaced. (Forum for Modern Languages)

beautifully produced (Brian Vickers, Times Literary Supplement)

Pound for pound the most consistently interesting and provocative edition of Shakespeare ever published. (Andrew Murphy, Around the Globe)

Oxford has launched- the ballistic image does seem apt- a second single volume version of its revolutionary edition, which first excited and outraged Shakespeareans in 1986. Oxford's Complete Works has a solid, traditional look but explodes into cutting-edge controversy inside. (Independent)
