Shakespeare's witty comedy about love and sibling rivalry described in plain and direct prose! "As You Like It" is one of Shakespeare’s most delightful and most magical comedies. However, the magic in it is not the obvious and direct form of magic found in plays like "A Midsummer Night’s Dream" (with its fairies) or "The Tempest" (with its sorcerer and sprite). Rather, the magic is subtle: it is the influence of nature upon various citizens who have abandoned the city for various reasons and have come to live in the country and woodlands.
