The impact of the plague in London prompted Shakespeare to pivot from theater to poetry, leading to the creation of significant works like Venus and Adonis and The Rape of Lucrece, supported by his patron, the Earl of Southampton. His collection of 154 Sonnets, published in 1609, explores themes of love and has garnered respect for its linguistic richness and emotional depth. This edition celebrates the artistry of Shakespeare's poetry, showcasing both individual sonnets and their collective power in enhancing his literary reputation.
