Shakespeare was a Woman and Other Heresies
It was a hat tip from a Jodi Picoult book, By Any Other Name, not the first reference to this tome, but a strong secondary. Bought the book.
Conjecture, facts, academic sleuthing, and what I recall? One of the recent, great biographies about Shakespeare, pretty sure I read it, but the supposition. More fiction than fact.
“The Droeshout portrait and its accompanying texts stirred a feeling I have often had about the whole mess: that there is something uncannily Shakespearean about the Shakespeare authorship question.” Page 97.
The authorship question rages onward. I liked the Sweet Swan of Avon, as that posited a female as the leading character.
