this took me a while to get into, but oh boy is it beautifully written- never have i loved and hated shakespeare so simultaneously and maggie o’farrell merges the factual and fictional so incredibly well. 

my only complaint is the choice to stop using chapters in the second part, while i do understand why she did it, it just made it difficult to read as i like to take breaks occasionally 😅

other than that i think this is such a unique form of insight into shakey and definitely worth checking out
