William Shakespeare, by Victor Hugo, Part 1

This week, while your reader checks off a long-held Life List item at the Globe, let’s relax as one literary genius waxes rather lyrical about another, as well as the nature of artistic genius itself. “We are such stuff as dreams are made on; and our little life is rounded with a sleep,” says the Bard. We quite agree.
