Little Book of Shakespeares Insults

Whether it's Prospero calling Caliban a 'freckled whelp, hag-born' or King Lear railing against his daughter Goneril with the damning words, 'Thou art a boil, a plague sore, an embossed carbuncle in my corrupted blood', Shakespeare doesn't hold back with his slights. Packed full of eloquent stings and poisonous putdowns, this is the perfect resource for anyone looking to scorn an enemy without resorting to the punchy but limited English stock of effs and jeffs.
