1592
Shakespeare
Richard III
B-
If I can turn off the anachronism-spotting part of my brain (especially in regard to Clarence's children), this is quite enjoyable. Richard is a good villain, yet a few other characters (mostly the women) get memorable lines. On the other hand, it is a history play, which means battle scenes that are quite boring to read and a bit too much "Let me make a speech that points out that I am making a speech that shows how historically significant and dramatically ironic what you just saw is."
