King Lear

This month The Wall Street Journal started a Saturday Edition. It is delivered on Saturday, and can be delivered to a different (non-work) address if you ask for it. I put my home address on my firm's subscription. Like everything else the Journal does (except, occasionally, for its over-the-top editorial page) the Weekend Edition is top notch. Here is a great, brief appreciation of King Lear by the famous critic Robert Brustein from this weekend's Leisure & Arts Masterpiece feature. (I'm not sure why this is online for free; generally the Journal charges for everything but editorials-- so read it quick before it goes to the pay archives-- the code in the link says "Five Days Only.")
