@stanley_wells I agree, and it was good of you to admit that in our interview. But when there is so much that you don’t know about Shakespeare, how can you maintain assertions of certainty? https://t.co/FcnSxEWkT2

Still Pictures: On Photography and Memory

Janet Malcolm
Elizabeth WinklerElizabeth Winkler

Part of the pleasure of this memoir is simply in getting to know her a little bit more ... The other part is in reading new sentences by Janet Malcolm. They land like the opening lines of classic novels--hard, shining, immovable truths.

A new book, "The Age of Phillis," by Honorée Fanonne Jeffers presents a different story. @BlkLibraryGirl rereads & rewrites Wheatley's life in a series of poems, undoing the whitewashing of her story. https://t.co/uq96yQHNhh

In "Circe," the goddess of magic is excavated from "The Odyssey" and given an epic of her own... I spoke with @EmilyRCWilson about @MillerMadeline's stunning novel https://t.co/VhFUA65HY8 via @WSJ

Not to make everything about Shakespeare (sorry) but James Joyce was very interested in the authorship question… and appears to have been sympathetic to the Oxfordian theory (?). The Ulysses passages are well-known but it also turns up in Finnegans Wake https://t.co/a1QgAI15Ni

The @strandbookstore has made this book a STAFF PICK!! Sitting next to my hero, JM! I took Malcolm’s writing on literary feuds (The Silent Woman, In the Freud Archives, etc) as my model, structuring the book around a series of interviews. https://t.co/E3xZi1AzwN

@stanley_wells @Oxfraud @SimonBooks That's not true. I told you I was writing a book on Shakespeare, I asked for your permission to record the interview, and you gave it. I also followed up afterwards in an email.
