Service95 Recommends is the home of the books we love and reviews from our contributors. William Shakespeare’s Romeo & Juliet is an exploration of the most vulnerable part of the human experience by one of the world’s greatest playwrights.
What Malorie Blackman Says: “Macbeth was the play that made me fall in love with Shakespeare. Before Macbeth, I admit I couldn’t see what all the fuss was about! Reading Romeo & Juliet reinforced that love as I really enjoyed reading the play and I was lucky enough to see it performed at the theatre with my entire class at school. It was one of the first Shakespeare plays I ever saw at the theatre as a young teenager and it fostered a lifelong love of the theatre.”
