Recenzje

'… Hester Leer-Jeffries has done a scrupulous job in making The Shakespearean Forest cohere and communicate … it is a remarkable book that luckily ended up being published even posthumously, written in a way that is amicable to lay readers as well as specialists.' Tommi Laine, Helsinki Book Review
