<p>Shakespeare for Sociopaths is a collection of sociopathic characters commented on, caged in the Shakespearean sonnet form.&nbsp; My whole life I&rsquo;ve been immersed in a milieu of dark characters &mdash; in my bed, in my head, in pop culture, books.&nbsp; This book represents the union of two twin passions/obsessions of mine: the Shakespearean sonnet form and villainous characters.&nbsp; Shakespeare himself was certainly fascinated with these kinds of characters and housed many such in his tomes from the Macbeths to Iago in Othello.&nbsp; I follow in his tradition with my own Garthian flourishes like internal rhyme and killer couplets. This poetic form is an obsession to me, and I stalk it like a sociopath.&nbsp; Open this book and visit the villains.&nbsp; They&rsquo;re caged.&nbsp; You&rsquo;re safe with me.&nbsp;</p><p>- Kristin Garth</p>
