    Ask not if you want "to be or not to be" but ask yourself "comedy or tragedy?" because it is time to read a Shakespearean play.

    Which of his plays will we be reading? Post your nominations here and I will set up a poll to decide. To begin with, I nominate "A Midsummer-night's Dream"

    Its time to read Shakespeare. I like all his comedies. Priya, as you have already nominated Midsummer night's dream, I will go with "Twelfth Night".
