The Two Gentlemen of Verona

Meer over het boek

Exploring themes of friendship, treachery, and the complexities of love, this early Shakespearean work features a courageous woman disguising herself as a boy, marking a significant narrative choice. Notably, the character Launce and his dog Crab provide comedic relief, often stealing scenes despite their minimal dialogue. With a small cast, it presents a more vulnerable side of Shakespeare's storytelling, showcasing his initial forays into the subjects he would later master in his more renowned plays.
