I was so excited that I opened it the day it arrived - almost two weeks early. I've never been so happy to lack willpower!Erik Didriksen is a master wordsmith. Every page is beautiful, witty, and reverent. He does not mock, à la Tom Lehrer or Paul and Storm, but rather delivers brilliant and respectful homages. He manages to strike the perfect balance between new verse and clear references.There's a sonnet for every mood. Feeling nostalgic? There's Alice's Restaurant, House of the Rising Sun, or Mrs. Robinson. Need a post-hockey playlist? Sweet Caroline and Don't Stop Believin' at your service. Looking for your daily earworm? The Proclaimers deliver. I even got Rickrolled (only the second person to ever get me - bravo, sir!) Old soul that I am, I knew nothing of the original songs from Indina Menzel or Nicki Minaj, but loved the sonnets anyway!This is a great gift for every lover of beautiful words - be they written, spoken, or sung. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ And you thought you didn't like Shakespeare... *by H***R on Reviewed in the United States on April 10, 2020* I LOVE this book! What a brilliant concept--taking major pop song hits and converting them to Shakespearean sonnets. The inventive 'translations' (transpositions?) are spot on--many hysterically so! The exercise seems so engaging that I can imagine introducing this in a high school classroom and assigning the students to 'sonnefy' their own favorite songs. I found myself rereading so many of these. I'll admit, the rewrites made me look at Eagles lyrics in a whole new way. The writer has added something fun and original that brings Shakespeare into the new generation. Kudos! ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Sonnets with a twist *by K***R on Reviewed in the United States on April 24, 2022* I found an e book copy years ago.Poetry is fun to read.Take a song and add a little Shakespeare. I had to have a copy for the times I need a unique poetry experience. The past style with known songs .It is a great combination. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.com.kw/products/18838553-pop-sonnets-shakespearean-spins-on-your-favorite-songs](https://www.desertcart.com.kw/products/18838553-pop-sonnets-shakespearean-spins-on-your-favorite-songs) --- *Product available on Desertcart Kuwait* *Store origin: KW* *Last updated: 2026-05-18*
