WILLIAM SHAKESPEARE

William Shakespeare (1564-1616) was born in Stratford-upon-Avon  England  to an alderman and a
successful glover-maker. Between 1585 and 1592  he began a successful career in London as an
actor and a writer. He is widely regarded as the greatest writer in the English language and
the world's best dramatist. His plays have been translated into every major living language 
and are still being studied and reinterpreted. Several of his most celebrated works like  A
Midsummer Night's Dream  Macbeth and Hamlet are to this day still being performed all around
the world. Altogether Shakespeare's works include 38 plays  2 narrative poems  154 sonnets  and
a variety of other poems. However  no original manuscripts of Shakespeare's plays are known to
exist today. It is thanks to a group of actors from Shakespeare's company that we have about
half of the plays at all. They collected them for publication after Shakespeare died 
preserving the plays. The conception and design behind our bookends stem from Swedish renowned
industrial designer  Jan Landqvist and are made in the small town of Gnosjö in the south of
Sweden.
