Contested Will: Who Wrote Shakespeare: By: James Shapiro [Audiobook]

Author: James Shapiro
Narrated by: Wanda McCaddon

For nearly two centuries, the authorship of William Shakespeare’s plays has been challenged by writers and artists as diverse as Sigmund Freud, Mark Twain, Henry James, Helen Keller, Orson Welles, Malcolm X, and Sir Derek Jacobi. How could a young man from rural Warwickshire, lacking a university education, write some of the greatest works in the English language? How do we explain the seemingly unbridgeable gap between Shakespeare’s life and works?

Contested Will unravels the mystery of Shakespeare’s authorship, retracing why and when doubts first arose, what’s at stake in the controversy for how we value Shakespeare’s achievement, and why, in the end, there can be no doubt about who wrote the plays.
