Shakespeare Reference in Your Erroneous Zones

I honestly thought this book was going to be a funny look at sex or something. Obviously the title is a play on erogenous zones. And look at the guy’s photo. From that photo, I assumed he was some kind of comedian. Well, I was wrong. The book isn’t funny. But it does contain one Shakespeare reference. Dyer writes, “He’ll learn to write a theme properly and the correct interpretations of Hamlet” (p. 66). Here he is talking about the typical high school student learning to conform.

Your Erroneous Zones was published in 1976. The copy I read was the First Avon Printing, September 1977.
