Shakespeare Folio Discovered!

Remember when I posted about the Jack Kerouac letter and how some said it was the biggest literary discovery of the twenty-first century? This one might top it. One of the world's rarest books, a folio of William Shakespeare's works was discovered in a small library in the north of France and it became the two hundred and thirty-third of the bunch. What makes this one special is that it is actually interesting and presentable  There are even some astounding discoveries that come with this discovery, including changes to pronouns (which alter characters) and insight into Shakespeare's audience and religion at the time of each play and sonnet. F****** awesome!
