Shakespeare: The World as Stage by Bill Bryson

3.0

If this was a book about Elizabethan theatre or the world that Shakespeare lived in, it did its job. BUT, as a book supposably a biography of Shakespeare's life, it did not. The conclusion I got from this was that there is nothing to know about Shakespeare. There is no evidence about a lot of his life. I was really hoping for an actual biography about his family, his inspirations, his feelings, but that is not what I got. This is not Bryson's fault however. I simply just felt this book a bit meh.
