FIVE BOOKS often has authors and authorities recommend five favorite books. This one is about Shakespeare, and includes recommendations from
"Sir Stanley Wells, honorary president of the Shakespeare Birthplace Trust in Stratford, and General Editor of The Complete Oxford Shakespeare;
Emma Smith, Professor of Shakespeare Studies at Oxford University, and acclaimed expert of Shakespeare's First Folio; and
James Shapiro, Professor of English at Columbia University, and award-winning author of Contested Will: Who Wrote Shakespeare? and 1606: William Shakespeare and the Year of Lear" -
and more (seven experts in all).

These include recommendations for plays, for children's book adaptations, books on the sonnets, on the life of Shakespeare, and scholarly books on Shakespeare.
