Klappentext zu „Shakespeare's Wife “
Little is known about Ann Hathaway, the wife of England's greatest playwright; a great deal has been assumed, none of it complimentary. In Shakespeare's Wife, Germaine Greer boldly breaks new ground, reclaiming this much maligned figure from generations of scholarly neglect and misogyny. With deep insight and intelligence, she offers daring and thoughtful new theories about the farmer's daughter who married Britain's immortal Bard, painting a vivid portrait of a truly remarkable woman.

Rezension zu „Shakespeare's Wife “
"Lively, rigorous, fiercely imagined...an ingenious new book...Germaine Greer [has] both a polemicist's vision and a scholar's patience....She has opened up the story; she has laid bare the fantasies, uprooted the assumptions...Riveting" - Katie Roiphe, New York Times Book Review"With a dazzling display of erudition and lively prose, SHAKESPEARE'S WIFE is a delight to read and a breath of fresh air for those interested in the Bard's life... Even those who disagree with Greer's interpretation should find SHAKESPEARE'S WIFE stimulating. Her radical exploration of Ann Hathaway is a compelling triumph." - Roger Bishop, BookPage
"Illuminating...Greer's book opens up new perspectives in offering alternative hypotheses to many of the all-too-easy assumptions about Shakespeare's wife and his relationship to her...This is an important book in the challenges that it poses to received opinion. It will have a permanent and beneficial effect on attempts to tell the story of Shakespeare's life." -Stanley Wells, New York Review of Books
