Robert C. (racprint) reviewed on 2/27/2022 + 24 more book reviews

The greatest playwright of the Elizabeth/Jacobean period, after Shakespeare. I love his intelligent, mischievous, satirical comedies. There's plenty of dialogue and plot to make you snicker, laugh out loud, or wince with recognition. Jonson is the consummate stage entertainer. He may not deliver the depth of Shakespeare, but the humor amply compensates.
