Shakespeare

Examining centuries of myths, half-truths and lies, Bill Bryson makes sense of the man behind the masterpieces. As he leads us through the crowded streets of Elizabethan England, he brings to life the places and characters that inspired Shakespeare's work. Along the way he delights in the inventiveness of Shakespeare's language, which has given us so many of the familiar words and phrases we use today, and celebrates the Bard's legacy to our literature, culture and history.
