Harriet Walter’s memoir explores the gendered obstacles of the Shakespearean canon, focusing on the scarcity of roles for ageing women. Rather than sharing personal anecdotes, she analyses her performances—particularly in the Donmar Warehouse’s all-female trilogy—to demonstrate how women can subvert toxic masculinity and challenge traditional power structures on stage.
This book is perfect for lovers of love. Veera and Deepak’s journey to love feels heartfelt and pure throughout. This is a fun from start to finish, with lots of ups and downs and all the ooey gooey goodness that you could hope for.
