Shakespeare did more than any person to shape the English language, coining more than 1,000 words and writing a host of poems and plays considered the finest of their genres. Yet the documentary records of his life is surprisingly scanty; literary historians know more about the lives of ancient Greek tragedians like Aeschylus and Sophocles than they do about Britain's greatest writer. In this compact, highly listenable biography, Alexander Kennedy separates truth from fiction, history from myth in the life of this enigmatic genius. Was Shakespeare gay or bisexual? Who were the recipients of his celebrated sonnets? Did another author write some or all of his plays? How could a single man's work so thoroughly reshape our language, our literature, and our world? The answers lie within. "To be, or not to be, that is the question." (William Shakespeare)

William Shakespeare had a huge secret. This book challenges everything you thought you knew about William Shakespeare and his characters. Jayde was 17, hated romance novels, romance plays, and everything that hinted at romance, but she didn't know why. When Roman Camaletti drives into her town in a car more expensive than any well-to-do adult could afford, wearing clothes that scream high-dollar, Jayde is instantly intrigued. He looks like an Italian American model but has the intellect of a doctor of literature and every move he sends her into an embarrassing, unexpected hormonal rage. His age old charm doesn't fit in this century, and it certainly doesn't help that he seems intrigued with Jayde, who's boycotted all thoughts of dating until she's completed her education. Roman Camaletti has a secret. When he arrives at Stafford High School, he discovers that his lifetime search for the girl who owns his heart is over. That girl is Jayde Pennington. He can't tell her why. He can't tell her how. And he certainly can't tell her when he became so enamored with her, but he'd do anything to be with her. All he has to do is earn one kiss, and his secret will be revealed. But how can he get a girl who refuses love to consider him as anything other than a lovesick psycho with an unbelievable story about who he really is?
