I read the intro to this, and I thought, "Falstaff is a space pirate -- well OF COURSE he is." (N.B. I love space pirates like nothing else). Lots of great parallels to the plays in here, and a really moving, insightful look at Falstaff, too. I loved the part about Hal looking like he's not a real person, and Falstaff reflecting that it really meant something to have been in the wars without trying to explain to the younger men.
