throughtosomethingnew asked: any gift ideas for shakespeare lovers?

A little while ago, Ugly Duckling put out Jen Bervin’s Nets. She makes these small, evocative poems by erasing (incompletely) most of Shakespeare’s sonnets.

I’ve said it once and I’ll said it again, but The Great Night by Chris Adrian—a retelling of A Midsummer’s Night Dream—would be good if this Shakespearean also reads contemporary stuff.
