A ‘Winter’s Tale’ for all seasons
If only life offered the second chance Shakespeare so magnanimously grants the monstrously miscalculating Leontes of his late-career romance “The Winter’s Tale.” Sixteen years of penitential loneliness — for making the false accusations that stop his family’s hearts — result for Leontes in redemption of a fantastical order, the sort that we all know can only happen in a play.
