La colección Biográfico ofrece una mirada completamente nueva de las vidas de grandes creadores y pensadores de la historia. Recoge 50 fechas, hechos, pensamientos, hábitos y éxitos que los definen y los plasma mediante vívidas instantáneas en forma de infografías. Es de sobra conocido que William Shakespeare (1564-1616) fue dramaturgo y poeta, que escribió Hamlet y El sueño de una noche de verano, y que es considerado el mejor autor de teatro de todos los tiempos. Lo que quizás no se sepa es que su método preferido para matar a los personajes era el apuñalamiento; que se le atribuye la creación de más de 2.000 palabras y expresiones en lengua inglesa, y que al morir era propietario de cinco casas y un pub. Biográfico Shakespeare abre el telón para presentarnos una lúdica guía de su vida, obra y legado, mediante una serie de hechos y cifras impactantes convertidos en atractivas imágenes que descubren al dramaturgo más allá de sus obras.
