I would like to see my retellings of classic literature used in schools, so I give permission to the country of Finland (and all other countries) to buy one copy of this eBook and give copies to all students forever. I also give permission to the state of Texas (and all other states) to buy one copy of this eBook and give copies to all students forever. I also give permission to all teachers to buy one copy of this eBook and give copies to all students forever.
Teachers need not actually teach my retellings. Teachers are welcome to give students copies of my eBooks as background material. For example, if they are teaching Homer’s “Iliad” and “Odyssey,” teachers are welcome to give students copies of my “Virgil’s ‘Aeneid’: A Retelling in Prose” and tell students, “Here’s another ancient epic you may want to read in your spare time.”

Hey Bruce, I really appreciate and absolutely love your PDF Dante guide. I would like to know if you sell it book form. I wish to purchase it if available.
Regards
Anthony Cordisco
It’s not currently available as a paperback. Sorry.
Hi Bruce,
I have just noticed that your version of Shakespeare’s Coriolanus is now available on Amazon for sale. I’ve read a number of your Shakespeare retellings in the past and have found them both very good and informative. Indeed they act as great introductions to the original plays themselves, far exceeding any earlier retellings by the likes of H.A. Guerber and (though a different type of book) Marchette Chute. However could you tell me whether your individual volumes (I think you’ve covered nearly all of plays – except Henry VIII!) are to be published as a single eBook later in the year or early next year? Rather than purchasing any more individual volumes, I feel that I’d like to have them as one single file on my kindle. Let me know if you have any plans for such a publication.
Yours sincerely,
Gary
Yes, the first half of next year: 2017.
It’s available now.
