Jeanne G. (IlliniAlum83) - , reviewed Two titles-- one great read! on 6/3/2009 + 181 more book reviews

In the manner of DaVinci Code, an exciting ocean crossing search for the real Shakespeare. I have a sister who is a Shakespearian actress married to a cofounder of the Hampton Shakespeare Festival, but I have limited exposure so this was a great read with both fact and fiction. She had casually talked about the Shakespeare theorists who believe this person or that person were the true authors of the great plays, but I never knew the extent of the controversy. The Afterword explains what is real and what imagined so it filled in the info I wondered about. I will definitely look up more books by this author!
