Think you know Shakespeare? Think again . . .

Was a real skull used in the first performance of Hamlet? Were
Shakespeare's plays Elizabethan blockbusters? How much do we really
know about the playwright's life? And what of his notorious
relationship with his wife? Exploring and exploding 30 popular
myths about the great playwright, this illuminating new book
evaluates all the evidence to show how historical material?or
its absence?can be interpreted and misinterpreted, and what
this reveals about our own personal investment in the stories we
tell.
