Against popular culture
- sevensor 9y agoI hesitate even to say it, because I know how snobbish it sounds, but I got tired of reading genre fiction, so I went to Project Gutenberg and started reading Shakespeare for the first time since High School. I always knew Shakespeare was great, everybody knows it, but knowing it and feeling it are worlds apart. Shakespeare is amazing. The words, the characters, the depth of meaning and ambiguity. Go read Shakespeare!
