    If you have kids, Holly, they’ll call J.K. Rowling and/or Stephanie Meyer an antique.

    Wait till she finds out about the content of Shakespeare’s plays and stories. That will entice her.

    Antiques are old nice things … old things that are not nice is what Stephanie Meyer is…

    I was thinking Much Ado About Nothing myself.

    You guys seriously need to read The Wednesday Wars. Especially the part where Holling is practicing Caliban’s curses. I still think Romeo and Juliet were idiots, even if Holling did manage to find sense in that play.

    What about that play they refuse to let hs students read: “Taming of the Shrew”. “My tongue in your tail? Forsooth, dear Kate, I am a gentleman!”

    I say start them off with some of his comedies then move on to the dramas.

    Not the censored ones I got in school. They take out most of the good stuff like any prurient hating neo-Puritan.

    “Antigone” was antagonistic to me in HS. Not my cup of tea when I was reading the likes of Heinlein & Asimov.
