Peter Greenaway's "Prospero's Books" is simultaneously absolutely Pomo  
and more faithful to the Bard's words than any other. Greenaway's take  
on this late Romance concerning some Brave New World is as  
encyclopedic as anything, postmodern novels concerning World War Two  
included.

Willie the Shakes was waaaaaaay ahead of his time.
