Sonnets Of Shakespeare's Ghost

Sonnets of Shakespeare's Ghost

by Thomas George Tucker

This collection of sonnets, written in the style of Shakespeare, presents itself as a response to critics who claim the Bard's sonnets were mere fictional constructs rather than expressions of genuine emotion. The speaker, identified as 'Shakespeare's Ghost,' attempts to reclaim the authenticity of the original sonnets through the language and form of their creator. The collection explores themes of love, loss, desire, and the passage of time, reflecting on the enduring power of human emotions and the ephemerality of life.
