North by Shakespeare: A Rogue Scholar’s Quest for the Truth Behind the Bard’s Work by Michael Blanding is a captivating nonfiction book that unravels the mysteries surrounding the origins of William Shakespeare’s plays. The narrative follows the parallel stories of renegade scholar Dennis McCarthy and 16th-century courtier Sir Thomas North. While some believe someone else secretly wrote Shakespeare,
McCarthy proposes a different theory: Shakespeare wrote the plays but adapted them from source plays written by North decades earlier. The book delves into the vibrant era of Elizabethan England and the contemporary world of Shakespeare scholars and obsessives.
