A Midsummer's Night Dream

 

This makes the eighth play that I've read from Shakespeare. I didn't really read him growing up so it's time to play catch up. My high school experience just consisted of teachers showing two movie adaptations. Yeah, they did a really bad job. This comedy is about four people, two men that love a girl Hermia, but she only loves Lysander. Demetrius the other man is pursued by another girl Helena. Then some faeries enter the plot. It was amusing and enchanting at the same time.  I'll probably read it again a few years later. I'm interested to watch the old movie.
