The Little Book of Shakespeare's Insults presents some of the best examples from this master of sublime slights and barbed verbal abuse. With helpful play names, acts and scenes, you'll soon have them all memorised ready to deliver some scornful wrath. Whether it's "freckled whelp, hag-born" or "a thrice double ass", they're guaranteed to hit home.

An invaluable resource, each page reveals cleverly damning words for your mortal enemies. Enjoy insults like "Away, you starveling, you elf-skin, you dried neat's-tongue, bull's-pizzle, you stock-fish!" Henry IV Part I or "Here is the babe - as loathsome as a toad" Titus Andronicus. Shakespeare never held back, and neither should you!
