Description

HarperCollins is proud to present our range of timeless literary classics.'If music be the food of love, play on;
Give me excess of it, that, surfeiting,
The appetite may sicken, and so die.'A comedic romance of mistaken identity, Twelfth Night begins with a shipwreck, splitting up Viola and her twin brother, Sebastian. Alone in a strange land, Viola disguises herself as a male servant, Cesario, in order to work for the Duke Orsino. Orsino is in love with Lady Olivia, but it is Cesario that Olivia falls for. A farcical tale of misplaced love, confusion, gender-swapping and aspiration, Twelfth Night remains one of Shakespeare's best-loved and inventive comedies.

I actually will not much say about it. A woman played a man. It is mostly comedy like but with some strange elements. I just read it in one flow which is always a good sign. And common': it's Shakespeare. What else you need? Some are born great, some achieve greatness, and some have greatness thrust upon them. If music be the food of love, play on.
