From Shakespeare With Love

The story: only days after finishing his widely-praised production of "Hamlet in the West End", David Tennant came into the Naxos AudioBooks studio to record some of Shakespeare's finest sonnets, including "Shall I Compare Thee to a Summer's Day?". He joined a strong cast of readers presenting some 70 sonnets in fresh performances to mark the 400th anniversary of the first publication of "The Sonnets" in 1609.


"I recommend a delightful Naxos CD, From Shakespeare - with love, a Best of the Sonnets compilation read by Juliet Stevenson, David Tennant, Anton Lesser and others."Robert McCrum, The Observer
