Lauren Gunderson's look at Shakespeare's First Folio is a lively, funny, poignant love letter to theater and the printed word. Shakespeare has been dead for three years. When a pirated, badly botched Hamlet plays on a nearby stage, William's friends and fellow actors realize Shakespeare's lines are disappearing into the forgetful memory of time. What they need is a true copy of his original plays, but to make one, they'll have to battle an unscrupulous publisher, a boozy poet laureate and their own mortality.
