What if Shakespeare was a woman?
1581. Emilia Bassano is allowed no voice of her own, but finds a way to bring her work to the stage secretly. Yet by paying a man for the use of his name, she will write her own out of history.
Now. Playwright Melina Green is determined to see one of her shows make the stage, but it’s still not a level playing field for women in the arts.
A beautifully written, compelling novel exploring the theme of identity and how two women, centuries apart one of whom might just be the real author of Shakespeare’splays must both hide behind another name to make their voicesheard.
