When Jane Sutcliffe sets out to write a book about William Shakespeare
and the Globe Theatre, in her own words, she runs into a problem: Will's
words keep popping up all over the place! What's an author to do? After
all, Will is responsible for such familiar phrases as what's done is
done and too much of a good thing. He even helped turn household words
into household words.
But, Jane embraces her dilemma, writing about Shakespeare, his plays,
and his famous phrases with glee. After all, what better words are there
to use to write about the greatest writer in the English language than
his very own? As readers will discover, the long and the short of it is
this: Will changed the English language forever.
