just spent a year wading through all his stuff.

Pointless exercise, because you have to see the plays acted out - it's the way you tell 'em.
It wouldn't surprise me if it was a co-operative effort. Some just looks like garbage filler type rubbish ( monkeys with typewriters etc.) but the good stuff just flies. The comedies (!) are almost uniformly poor (12th Night's OK), but most of the History plays & Tragedies are gripping.

I particularly liked his line:
" Hie thee hence, lest I trounce thee thrice like unto the whoreson dog pf a Clattenburg thou art".
