Shakespeare Sonnet 29




When I first heard this production of Shakespeare's Sonnet 29, I was almost speechless after listening to it.  It is performed by Rufus Wainwright and is very beautiful to listen to.  The artist chose the movie Pride and Prejudice to pair this sonnet with.  I believe that this was a very good choice.  The sonnet and the movie match up almost perfectly.  I have read many of Shakespeare's sonnets, and all of them seem to have some sort of message in them.  I feel as if his sonnets almost speak from human experience.
