Plot
We're all familiar with the classic films, but what does it say about American culture when references to William Shakespeare turn up in TV episodes, B movies, and hardcore porn? Unspeakable ShaXXXspeares is a savvy look at how The Bard's work has permeated 1990's pop culture. Documenting a fascinating array of citations that are so far from their originals that they no longer count as interpretations of Shakespeare's plays, this book puts Shakespearian studies on the front burner of popular culture.
