More about the book
The play opens with Duke Orsino's obsession with love, symbolized through his demand for music, which he believes nourishes his feelings. As he indulges in his romantic fantasies about Olivia, Shakespeare explores the fleeting nature of love, likening it to music and the scent of violets—initially sweet but ultimately overwhelming. Orsino's self-absorption reveals a deeper truth about his feelings, suggesting he may not truly love Olivia as he claims. This sets the stage for a contemplation of love's illusions and complexities throughout the narrative.
