I think I had to read a couple of Shakespeare sonnets and one play, or some such, in school. It's not as if we were subjected to an entire Shakespeare
semester or anything like that.
Why is everyone always so quick to jump on the "No More Shakespeare in School" band-wagon while the pain induced by the likes of
Bartleby the Scrivener, or
Waiting for Godot seem to be easier for everyone to forgive/forget.
