• You guys will love "Four Minute Books", it provides a very readable summary of books but they are not so small as to lose all their value but not too big that they waste your time in case it's a topic you are not interested in!

  And in case you like it as such: https://fourminutebooks.com. Source: over 2 years ago

• Where can I find a (free) 'translation' of the Timon of Athens speech?

  I was able to find a "translation" into modern English on No Fear Shakespeare (sparknotes.com) It was helpful. They had a summary, but they didn't have the Timon of Athens play. I am not able to find a 'translation' of Timon of Athens anywhere. Does anyone here know where I can find one? Preferably for free. Source: over 2 years ago
