Shakespeare’s sonnets’ are one of the most researched literary pieces in the history of literature. As the author says in his introduction, “For an awakened writer & poet like Shakespeare, to write Plays or Sonnets, it might not be necessary for him to personally undergo all those experiences in real life situations.” However, his sonnets bear an universal appeal for almost all kind of emotional state.

It is noticeable that the author deliberately ignores the traditional way of explaining Shakespeare’s sonnets by analyzing the mysterious identity of ‘the dark lady’ and ‘the sweet boy’ to whom many of his sonnets are addressed. In this book, Mohan did not bother to waste much ink on Shakespeare’s sonnets’ dedication. Rather, the author included an interesting fact that many ancient wise men “have written verses as female, addressing ‘the God,’ or ‘Higher Power,’ or ‘Invisible’ as their Beloved.”

Published by Shambhabi – The Third Eye Imprint, the book consists of 154 sonnets with striking explanation and meaning which are not only enjoyable to read but also helpful for those who are fascinated with Shakespeare or even for literary scholars and students.
