How I wish I could take a class with Jean Howard! She is the perfect guide to the complexities and demands of King Lear. Throughout, this book is wise and inviting, subtle and engaging, provocative and helpful. This is a perfect book for students – but not only for students: everyone will learn from and be made to think by reading it, however well we suppose ourselves to know this astonishing play. * Peter Holland, University of Notre Dame, USA *
