Tim Slover brings fresh clarity to his contemporary version of
Shakespeare's final play. Playwright, poet, and novelist Tim Slover
presents William Shakespeare's and John Fletcher's collaboration,
The Two Noble Kinsmen, in a modern translation that retains all the
wit, romance, and poetry of the original. For his last play, the
Bard pulled out all the stops, creating a tragicomedy of heart's
yearning and deadly rivalry, and peopling it with heroes and
heroines out of legend, including two of the greatest--and least
known--female roles in the entire canon. Fletcher provided the
music and dance. Slover brings it all vividly to life with fresh
clarity and fiery passion in this new, contemporary version. This
translation was written as part of the Oregon Shakespeare
Festival's Play On! project, which commissioned new translations of
thirty-nine Shakespeare plays. These translations present the work
of "The Bard" in language accessible to modern audiences while
never losing the beauty of Shakespeare's verse. These volumes make
these works available for the first time in print--a new First
Folio for a new era.
