ABOUT THIS BOOK

Much Ado About Nothing, a comedy set in five acts, tells the story of a woman, Hero, wrongly accused of unfaithfulness. The subplot is of Benedick and Beatrice’s attemtps at not falling in love when that is precisely what they feel for each other. In this play, what sustains the reader’s interest is the brilliant pacing of the narrative and the use of engaging dialogues

AUTHOR OF THE BOOK

William Shakespeare, perhaps the greatest English playwright ever, was born in 1564. By 1592 he was sufficiently established as a playwright to be criticized in print. He was a leading member of the Lord Chamberlain’s Company, which became the King’s Men on the accession of James I in 1603. He died in April 1616 and is buried in Holy Trinity Church, Stratford-upon-Avon
