The anti-apartheid prisoners on the island, like so many in every age and nation, found that Shakespeare had a peculiar ability to gentle their condition. They used to gather clandestinely to read the plays; on one occasion, the book was passed around for each man to mark his favourite lines.
岛上的反种族隔离囚犯,就像各个时代和国家的许多人一样,发现莎士比亚有一种特殊的能力来缓和他们的处境。他们过去常常偷偷地聚在一起看戏;有一次,这本书被分发给每个人,让他们写下自己最喜欢的台词。
