- Summary:
- The hypothesis of Joel Hillion (in continuation of his previous work on the Sonnets) is based on the idea that the transformation of Shakespeare during his career is not the result of chance but of his unique experience. By raising a part of the veil on the mysteries that still surround the life and work of the Bard, the author questions his production to find out what Shakespeare says about himself. This book is a "robot portrait" (an identikit) of the greatest playwright and poet of the English language.
