Every time a new article comes out discussing banning Shakespeare from schools, treating our bard like a crusty exercise in pompous drudgery, I fear our cultural love affair with his wicked pen may end. Then I read something like this and a bright light opens at the end of the dark, public education tunnel and I think there is hope after all.
The few pages I was privileged to digest in the preview have a spirit about them that brings me back to my 7th grade English class and the first time William and I met. It was a dream, midsummer perhaps, and it changed my relationship with language forever.
I am so excited to see where this novel takes Shakespeare's heroines and I look forward to existing in the purgatorial trapdoor with this lot of ladies.
