Shakespeare’s Romeo and Juliet and Green’s The Fault in Our Stars explore first love. Compare how the authors present the relationship, noting the similarities and differences.

Both Shakespeare’s, Romeo and Juliet and john greens the fault in our stars both base on the key theme of 1st love. Shakespeare’s novel revolves around
