Drawing on a career working with Shakespeare in the theatre, he has identified a wealth of everyday phrases and idioms that originated with Shakespeare - "fight fire with fire," "in a pickle," "wild goose chase," and 98 others. This book will not only offer light, supplementary material for intermediate to advanced level students, it will also provide exposure to some of the practical, everyday language that animates English conversation around the world.
