Poetry is life, Poetry is truth, Poetry is language of heart, Poetry is eternal music, Poetry is frosted fire. Without poetry the life would be a floundering one. In this age of electronics when we are slowly losing humanity and life, here comes a book of poetry which could shake us to the core. Tenanted 
poet S. A. Joseph’s new book An Apology For Shakespeare comes in the right place at a right time.
In his humble attempt S. A. Joseph tried to tell what poetry is to life. The 132-page paperback consists of 52 chapters, each chapter trying to convey the message that life without poetry is just something which is not possible. The poet tried to create a conscience among the people to reject negativity from lives and choose good qualities.
The book is sort of defence of poetry and it deals with certain established concepts about poetry such as what is poetry? Who is a poet? What is the advantage of studying poetry? What is the function of poetry? What is the influence of poetry on society? Why all are not poets?
Most of the poems are written in very easy language so that the readers easily can connect with the poet and his thoughts. The most intriguing part of the anthology is when the poet meets William Shakespeare in his dreams.
So what will you do if you suddenly meet William Shakespeare, one of the greatest poets of history of mankind and he is ready to talk to you? Read the book to find out the fascinating conversations between poet S. A. Joseph and William Shakespeare.
