5/19/2023 0 Comments Shakespeare's Lady by Alex SchneeMeanwhile, William, courting the queen's favor for his new theater, pens some of the most memorable stories ever written, and encourages Emilia to write he helps her compose, and eventually steals, a little bedtime story she calls A Midsummer Night's Dream. These star-crossed lovers must fight for their love - and, eventually, their lives. But the course of true love never did run smooth, and the Virgin Queen does not take lightly to her ladies straying. Shakespeare sees the world like no one ever has before, and despite everything - his wife in Stratford-Avon, Emilia's husband and young son, and the will of the fiery and unpredictable queen - they fall in love. In Shakespeare's Lady, Emilia Bassano is one of the most dazzling ladies at court when she meets the little-known playwright William Shakespeare. Emilia Bassano - lady-in-waiting to Queen Elizabeth and one of the first women poets in England - could be the answer. For centuries, readers have debated the identity of the mysterious Dark Lady in William Shakespeare's sonnets.
