Timothy Adès' lipogrammic translations of Shakespeare's 154 sonnets, LOVING BY WILL, which we published in 2016 has been highly praised:

'
I simply do not know if I can find words to applaud your work as much as I should....Genius.' – Stephen Fry
'Buy this book!' - Philip Hensher

LOVING BY WILL presents the original sonnets by William Shakespeare side by side with Timothy Adès's lipogrammic translation, together with a summary of the sense of the sonnet, in lipogram form, of course. The fourth imprint of LOVING BY WILL is available now. 

​
Sonnet 18
 (in words without 'e'):
Comparing you with a day probably in July or August

 
I’ll put you up against a balmy day…
You win on looks. Not cold, and not too warm.
Winds cut up rough with darling buds of May;
a two-month contract can’t supply much balm.
Dog-days in August turn to burning hot,
or may contrarily grow all too dim;
and all fair fowls fall foul of you-know-what,
thrown by bad luck, or sunspots, out of trim.
But your hot days will last and last and last,
maintaining tiptop form with full control;
nor shall morticians brag of shadows cast
across your path. My words shall grow your soul.

    Mankind may gasp and gawp, unstoppably:
    I sign this gift, your immortality.
