  • Was Shakespeare really Shakespeare? (And other rude questions)

    There’s a lot that’s unknown about the life of William Shakespeare. But over the years, it’s become a blasphemous act to question whether the Bard is the real author of all those works of classic literature. We talk to the author of a book looking at the history of questioning the questioning of Shakespeare’s true identity.
