Was Shakespeare’s work written by a woman?
This is the question Aurore Evain attempts to answer in this captivating investigation!
Drawing on American scholar Robin P. Williams’ research on Mary Sidney Herbert, Countess of Pembroke, the author takes us on her quest to restore the true authorship of the greatest work of English theater.
From troubling clues to compelling evidence, “inspector” Evain demonstrates with rigor and lightness that, while it is highly unlikely that William Shakespeare wrote a single line of the works attributed to him, it is very likely that Mary Sidney, Countess of Pembroke, was their true author!
