Author: McCullough, Joy

Condition: New

At once tender, poetic and ferocious, Enter The Body breathes new life into the Bards most tragic heroines. More than a tribute to Shakespeare, this kaleidoscopic, ambitious novel-in-verse gives Juliet, Ophelia, Cordelia, and Lavinia the chance to tell their own stories full of passion, justice, sisterhood, and love. Simply spectacular.-Michael L. Printz Award winner Laura Ruby, author of Bone GapIn the room beneath a stage's trapdoor, Shakespeares dead teenage girls compare their experiences and retell the stories of their lives, their loves, and their fates in their own words. Bestselling author Joy McCullough offers a brilliant testament to how young women can support each other and reclaim their stories in the aftermath of trauma.
