The Life of William Shakespeare Expurgated

In this hilarious parody of literary biography, author William Leavitt Stoddard takes aim at the absurdity and pretension of the genre. As he tells the 'true' story of the life of William Shakespeare, he skewers everyone from stuffy academics to sensationalist tabloids, and manages to make readers laugh out loud at every turn. A must-read for anyone who loves Shakespeare or enjoys a good laugh.
