He rushed to the library to finish the story only to learn he couldn't understand the original work. So began a lifelong dream of making Shakespeare understandable for all, down the the smallest detail, enlisting the help of the world's most renowned researchers from BBC TV series, QI, to aid him.- Please note - this work may not be suitable for readers under 12 years old due to bawdy innuendo. -See also Macbeth Translated, Hamlet Translated, Midsummer Night's Dream Translated, and Othello Translated by SJ Hills.
