The love sonnets are addressed to romantics, dreamy lovers, and fiery hearts. Shakespeare's sonnets are the best ever written. However, they are also addressed to cynics, fulfilled lovers, and those who know the sorrow of unrequited love. Some seem to have been written for a young man, some for a woman. Although the poems are full of mystery - why did Shakespeare write them and for whom? - each speaks to us across the centuries about love, hate, and the intensity of life.
