The Merchant of Venice

It's closer to a “3.5” but it's still really good, I just wasn't in love with the art or the degree to which the language was changed. Of corse all the highly quotable lines are still in there, but it still feels like something is missing. It's a great way to quickly get in a Shakespeare story that isn't Cliffnotes or an outright summary, but it's definitely “Shakespeare-lite”. Now I'm going to try his version of King Lear.
