"The Sonnets" of William Shakespeare are a collection of 154 loosely connected 14 line poems. Considered by many to be among some of the greatest love poetry ever written much debate surrounds the context of the poetry. It has been suggested that the work may be semi-autobiographical but no real evidence firmly supports this notion. Regardless of their context, "The Sonnets" can be appreciated individually or as a whole as examples of William Shakespeare's true literary genius.

Shakespeare may be best known for his plays, but it is with his sonnets that, as William Wordsworth wrote, “Shakespeare unlocked his heart.” In this new edition of 154 poems strung together by the entanglements of lust and love for a “dark lady” and a “fair youth,” with illustrations by Trizha Ko, the Bard meditates upon love and desire, passion and procreation, truth and beauty, death and time.

The main issue of debate has always been whether it remained platonic or became physical. The first 17 poems, traditionally called the procreation sonnets, are addressed to the young man urging him to marry and have children in order to immortalize his beauty by passing it to the next generation. Other sonnets express the speaker's love for the young man; brood upon loneliness, death, and the transience of life; seem to criticise the young man for preferring a rival poet; express ambiguous feelings for the speaker's mistress; and pun on the poet's name. The final two sonnets are allegorical treatments of Greek epigrams referring to the "little love-god" Cupid.BONUS :• The sonnets Audiobook.• 10 Illustrations about William Shakespeare.
