The Comedy of Errors
By
William Shakespeare
Book Summary:
Shakespeare’s The Comedy of Errors is the slapstick farce of his youth. In it, the lost twin sons of the old merchant Egeon both named Antipholus find themselves in Ephesus, without either one even knowing of the other’s existence. Meanwhile, Egeon has arrived in search of the son he thinks is still alive and has been sentenced to death for the “crime” of being from Syracuse.
