Re: Shakespeare
son has the oxford shakespeare - second edition - it certainly reads easier than the alexander text, and came to us recommended, but the latter might give you a better idea of speaking it - curl'd instead of curled say, to show a shorter syllable
there would be somethng to be said, if you have access to a large bookshop, to go and have a look together through a few versions

unfortunately, when my hamlet-obsessed dd went to buy for her gcse (much ado) she bought the hamlet notes but not the much ado ones
