The Winter's Tale by Joan L Hall

With a raging bear, the figure of Time, and a statue that turns out to be a living woman, The Winter's Tale is one of Shakespeare's most unusual dramas. The final chapters review the critical and scholarly response to Shakespeare's work and its performance history.
