    Shakespeare didn't hold back when it came to getting creative with his slights. Packed full of eloquent stings and poisonous putdowns, this is the perfect go-to for anyone looking to scorn an enemy - without resorting to swearing!

    "Away, you scullion, you rampallion, you fustilarian!"

    Along with penning some of the most sublime passages in all of English Literature, Shakespeare was a master when it came to casting a wicked comeback or hurling a barbed insult:

    "Away, you starvelling, you elf-skin, you dried neat's-tongue, bull's-pizzle, you stock-fish!" Henry IV Part I (Act 2, Scene 4)
    "Away, you three-inch fool." The Taming of the Shrew (Act 4, Scene 1)
    "Go, prick thy face, and over-red thy fear, Thou lily-liver'd boy." Macbeth (Act 5, Scene 3)
    "The tartness of his face sours ripe grapes." The Comedy of Errors (Act 5, Scene 4)

     

    The Little Book Of Shakespeare's Insults is a great gift for the person who truly appreciates English literature.

    Let customers speak for us

    from 543 reviews
    Seniors like to deal with Australian companies.

    I am 80 years old and a very strong supporter of Australian-owned companies.

    I needed a special "Information Clock" for my wife who has short-term memory loss. I checked several websites and selected The Independence Shop as they are Australian and their presentation was good quality.

    They sent follow-up emails and I thanked them for their information and their business style. I will deal with them if we need other seniors-helpers and refer our friends when they need them.

    I wish Chris and Rosie best wishes for their future.

    I purchased four products, each has proved good value, easy to use and three had no batteries to chase after.
    What I also liked was this was a local business with personal delivery which was very prompt.

    I rang them for advice. The advice was helpful and the products came very quickly. Thank you

    We ordered our products for free local delivery, and couldn't be happier! They were delivered within the hour! I almost fell over! Plus great quality products for around the home and garden. Can definitely recommend The Independence Shop, especially for Bribie Islanders.

    I had an excellent experience. They have a wide range of products for independent living. Very happy with their service and to support a small Aussie business :-) Will definitely purchase from them again!

    Tess B.

    Highly recommended. Found some great daily living aids and super gift ideas over the Xmas period from this online shop! My order arrived quickly and was well packaged.

    Kelsey G.

    Great service!! I purchased through www.theindependenceshop.com.au and they delivered locally to mum in Bellara within the hour! Happy with the seatbelt reacher and Handybar that we purchased for the car, quality Stander products. Can recommend buying daily living products from The Independence Shop.

    Reliable service and a great selection of products. Found quite a few things that I didn't know were available. Worth a look!

    Michael Y.

    It's really nice to know what's available to support my elderly mother. I've tried to find useful things previously and it's not easy from one reliable place.

    Kiana H.

    The products arrived quickly. I didn't have to question if they would take months to get delivered or if they would even be what I ordered.

    Collin K.

    Order delivered within a few hours! And now I don't need to use a cooking spatula to apply sunscreen to my back!
