Admiration can become jealousy, devotion can turn to accusation, and the passing of time repeatedly threatens what the speaker most wants to preserve. The figures conventionally known as the Fair Youth and the Dark Lady remain elusive, encouraging readers to attend to the changing arguments and emotions within the verse. Shakespeare's command of the sonnet form makes each poem a concentrated encounter with uncertainty, intimacy and the possibility that words may outlast the people who inspired them.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Folio Vault","offers":[{"title":"Very Good","offer_id":55216540221779,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"Good","offer_id":55421204463955,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1085\/2951\/6883\/files\/1453.jpg?v=1792532046","url":"https:\/\/thefoliovault.com\/products\/shakespeares-sonnets-2004-folio-society-1453","provider":"Folio Vault","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
