A playful romp, it is at the same time a serious look at the forces that midwife art, the effects of time and place, and the ordinariness that is found side by side with the extraordinariness of genius.</p><p/><br></br><p><b> From the Back Cover </b></p></br></br>'Nothing Like The Sun' is a magnificent, bawdy telling of Shakespeare's love life. Starting with the young Will, the novel is a romp that follows Will's maturation into sex and writing.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>Burgess can remake reality not only in his own writing but also in a new perception of the writings of his subject.-- "New York Times Book Review"<br><br><em>Nothing Like the Sun</em> is a wildly inventive, verbally dazzling attempt to enter the secret chambers of Shakespeare's inner life. Cunning, alert, and deliciously irresponsible, Burgess brilliantly invents a private history of sexual desire and betrayal lurking behind the blank face that looks out from the First Folio.--Stephen Greenblatt<br>
