Full-Cast Audiobook! Go Beyond Your Wettest Dreams... as If You Are Penniless and Yet Listening From Outside the Globe Theater! In the last decade of the 16th century, William Shakespeare could not dare write A Midsummer Night's (Wet) Dream unabridged. By the happenchance of his birth-century, The Bard wrote in a poetic 'Shakespearean Code', hinting at sexualities and paraphilias he fully intended to compose and expose his Elizabethan audience to. His intended 'erotica for every fetish' morphed instead into a 'humane and wise drama' by happenchance. But What If? there was a multiversal reality where the Marquis de Sade deciphered the Shakespearean Code during his long stay at the lunatic asylum at Charenton. But now Ophelia T'Wat, living in a much more sexually accepting century, can reach across realities to snatch these pages from the bloody quill of the Marquis and finally, fatefully publish the Wettest Midsummer Night'sDream conceivable!Voir livre
The language of Poetry is an art that most of us attempt at some point in our lives. Although its commonplace exposure has been somewhat marginalised in today’s often fast-paced lives we all recognise good verse that can empathise with our thoughts or open us up to experience new things in new ways, to better understand and to enjoy the many strands of our lives. But finding a starting point can be overwhelming, even off-putting, so in this series we offer up our Top 10 classic poets, who brim with talent and verse, on a range of subjects and themes that we can all enjoy. War may be called diplomacy by other means but for the youth of a nation, pressed into service for that nation, its effects are horror, terror, injury, trauma and the likelihood of death. Within the words of these 10 poets, dreams, ambition and reality collide into some very vivid and moving words. 1 - The Top 10 Poets - The War Poets - An Introduction 2 - Soldier's Dream by Wilfred Owen 3 - Anthem For Doomed Youth by Wilfred Owen 4 - Futility by Wilfred Owen 5 - From My Diary July 1914 by Wilfred Owen 6 - Sonnet - On Seeing A Piece of Our Heavy Artillery Brought into Action by Wilfred Owen 7 - This Is No Case of Petty Right or Wrong by Edward Thomas 8 - These Things That Poets Said by Edward Thomas 9 - The Trumpet by Edward Thomas 10 - Cock Crow by Edward Thomas 11 - Adlestrop by Edward Thomas 12 - Libido by Rupert Brooke 13 - Dead Men's Love by Rupert Brooke 14 - Desertion by Rupert Brooke 15 - The Funeral of Youth.
