Measure For Measure

Measure for Measure (1995) – William Shakespeare (Wordsworth Classics)
Sold by: Crappy Old Books

Justice. Power. Hypocrisy. Horny monks. It’s Shakespeare at his most awkwardly brilliant in Measure for Measure, the so-called “problem play” where nobody gets what they want—except maybe the Duke, and even he’s a bit of a creep about it.

This 1995 Wordsworth Classics edition includes all the Elizabethan drama you can handle, plus a short intro for readers who don’t have time to write a dissertation. Expect moral dilemmas, unexpected proposals, and the kind of gender politics that would make your HR department twitch.

Sure, it’s got yellowed pages, that musty old-book smell, and probably a coffee stain or two—but that just makes it feel authentic. Like Shakespeare intended.

Perfect for students, theatre nerds, or anyone who wants to own a book that screams “I read the Bard, and I suffer for it.”

Condition: Used, obviously.
Bonus: May include helpful (or unhelpful) pencil notes from a previous desperate English major.

Great condition but with one instance of notes in the text, section 70, in pen.
