Marivic, one of our booksellers, has taken on the task of completing a 1,000 piece puzzle called “Shakespearean Fantasy.” The design is a painting by artist James C. Christensen taken from the children’s book Voyage of the Basset. It is made up of characters from thirty of William Shakespeare’s plays. We plan on framing it when completed and customers can try to identify the characters and scenes.

On the left is the current state of the puzzle and on the right is the goal. We’ll try to take clearer pictures as we follow progress on this task.
