"A Midsummer's Night Dream" is dream-like, yet humourous and farcical, as it follows the romantic intrigues of both ordinary Athenians and Oberon and Titania - King and Queen of the Fairies. Part of the "Barnes & Noble Shakespeare" series, this features newly edited texts prepared by leading scholars from Great Britain and America, in collaboration with one of the world's foremost Shakespeare authorities, David Scott Kastan of Columbia University. Together, they have produced texts as faithful as possible to those that Shakespeare wrote.
