Literary critic Harold Bloom tosses his scholarship to readers in Shakespeare: The Invention of the Human, a remarkably controversial work considering its academic overtones. By leading readers through a comprehensive interpretation of every one of Shakespeare's plays, Bloom shows how the foundation of his argument is there. Whether you believe it or not, how can you resist reading ideas this bold? | Shakespeare: Invention Of The Human by Harold Bloom, Paperback | Indigo Chapters
