First published in 1941, No Bed for Bacon is a comic classic. Out
of print since 1985, but much-discussed in the press following the
release of the Oscar-showered film Shakespeare in Love, the novel
fizzes with wit, warmth and the occasional custard pie. It is a
festive celebration of 'The Great Bard' par excellence. Five
o'clock and all's well in Merrie England. But not for long. Good
Queen Bess is stirring in her four-poster and is feeling neither
happy nor glorious. Down at the Globe, Will Shakespeare is chewing
the end of his quill: something's amiss with Love's Labours Wunne.
And Walter Raleigh, boiling his new potato in the depths of the
regal kitchens, is getting very hot under the collar of his latest
cloak - will his spud achieve the perfect fluffiness for The Royal
Tasting? Heads are sure to roll before the day is out.
