World Book Day and Shakespeare's Birthday!

Shakespeare is supposed to have been born on this day in 1564, but he also died on this day in 1616 -just one day after the death of another great writer, Miguel de Cervantes. And World Book Day -if one really needs such a thing, since every day is a book day in my world- happens to be today too. Also it is spring, and the time for clearing up and sorting out; what better day to go through my Shakespeare bookshelf and sort out the many volumes, plays, books of critcism and history there. My aim was to perhaps get rid of some of them, but I just haven't the heart too, so they will all be going back in the shelf later today. Ah well, that's the love of books for you!
