I really liked this version of the story of Romeo and Juliet. I mainly read this in the Modern English while my son was reading it for high school. Since I have the "Dual English" version I can go back on my own and read both versions on my own. I read this sometime in high school back in the 80s, but I never really understood it. The Modern English does help and gives me confidence that I can read the Shakespearian English version and better understand that. I really enjoyed this story and I am now going to watch the 1968 movie somehow.
