I’m moving so slow but after checking her sources I’m loving this book again. I didn’t know who Emilia Bassano so this has been enlightening and it’s interesting seeing the parallels between Emilia and her descendant.

The further in I get into this book, the more skeptical I become of it’s intention. Is Picoult trying to entertain us or convince us that Shakespeare didn’t write his plays? How many people dug into this book and came out of it misinformed about the legitimacy of Shakespeare’s work? Or is there something deeper I’m missing?

I’m not looking forward to returning to the Melina chapters. I want to stay with Emilia!
