By the beginning of the Twentieth Century, almost anyone in England who knew anything about Shakespeare knew that he had written his famous love sonnets to a beautiful adolescent male who was fifteen when the first sonnet was written. This volume contains the 127 sonnets he wrote for or about his young male love. The introduction details the story of infatuation revealed by the sonnet sequence.
