Shakespeare is grossly overrated
And the continued reading and infatuated wanking over of his material is predicated by habit and a self-perpetuating academic bias which says he is the king of all things literary when he is actually an alright relic whose comedies are no longer funny and whose tragedies are ham-fisted soliloquy monsters nobody in a post-realist world really enjoys all that much.
Yes or no?
