Guilty nostalgic pleasure I just completed...

My lunchtime reading:
[Invalid or Expired Link Removed]
 
Lord Hamlet's Castle, by Hunter Steele. It's a freewheeling prose interpretation of what might actually be happening in Shakespeare's most famous and enigmatic drama. Raunchy in places, and often plausible in spotlighting overlooked subplots.

EDIT: Now that I'm through with it, I must say all the salaciousness really became overbearing, as if the author put it in for his own gratification. The style was self-consciously cute, with much obtrusive alliteration, but otherwise I found it useful for making out the possible motivations of the main characters, as well as some of the more obscure puns.
