Dream Country and A Midsummer Night's Dream

After reading the excerpt from Dream Country, I formed a few different opinions about A Midsummer Night's Dream.  First of all, I used to like Puck.  After seeing this image of him I think he looks scary and that is not what I pictured at all.  Secondly, there was a particular quote made by Titania that read, "We thank you shaper.  But this diversion, although pleasant, is not true.  Things never happened thus."  It seems as if Gaiman is almost challenging Shakespeare and saying to readers that these mythical creatures do exist but they have a different story.  I kind of wish he would have gone into more detail about really happened.  So, in a way, Gaiman's interpretation destroyed the classic.  It forced readers to look another direction and wonder what his version of the story was.
