More about the book
'All the world'd a stage, And all the men and women merely players.' Rosalind, banished by her cruel uncle, travels secretly to the Forest of Arden, where her exiled father holds court. There, dressed as a boy to avoid discovery, she encounters the man she loves - now a fellow exile - and resolves to remain in disguise to test his feelings for her. One of Shakespeare's most sunny, fast-paced and accessible comedies, As You Like Itis an exuberant combination of concealed identities and verbal jousting, burlesque and pastoral dream, reconciliations and multiple weddings. 'At once sublime poet and master dramatist.' Simon Callow General Introduction by Stanley Wells Edited by H. J. Oliver With an introduction by Katherine Duncan-Jones
