Rather than relitigate nonsense claims about how a glover's son couldn't conceivably have been Shakespeare, Stephen Unwin wrote 'Poor Naked Wretches': a stimulating and original book about the dramatic representation of working people in Shakespeare (which I helped publish). https://t.co/Jd9Vzmr0ph
