William Shakespeare, A Very Peculiar History uniquely explores the
life and works of the widely-regarded greatest writer of the
English language. Through dispelling common myths (Could his father
really not read or write? What really happened during 'the Lost
Years'? Why did he retire from writing while only in his early
40s?) and revealing fascinating trivia, this book attempts to
answer many of the often-disputed questions surrounding the life of
the nation's favourite playwright. We learn about Shakespeare's
family and childhood, and, with much reference to his most famous
works, why his writing has endured the test of time and remains
endlessly adaptable. Fact boxes, a full glossary and index make the
book both fun and informative to use. The text is enlivened with
black-and-white line drawings and full-colour endpapers.
