    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.
