Shakespeare: A Midsummer Night's Dream Reviews

'This is a helpful book: it identifies key critical accounts; it organises them effectively within a larger narrative that is not at all intrusive; it summarises them clearly and illustrates its summaries with well-chosen quotation. Its guidance is always helpful and balanced and the book provides overall a very good grounding in criticism of the play.' - Nick Potter, Swansea Metropolitan University, UK 'Tredell works through chronologically, summarising concisely and quoting effectively, giving a comprehensive account of the full range of criticism.' - John Haddon, The Use of English
