À propos de cette écoute
Bryson documents the efforts of earlier scholars, from academics to eccentrics. Emulating the style of his famous travelogues, Bryson records episodes in his research, including a visit to a bunker-like basement room in Washington, D.C., where the world's largest collection of First Folios is housed.
Bryson celebrates Shakespeare as a writer of unimaginable talent and enormous inventiveness, a coiner of phrases ("vanish into thin air", "foregone conclusion", "one fell swoop") that even today have common currency. His Shakespeare is like no one else's: the beneficiary of Bryson's genial nature, his engaging skepticism, and a gift for storytelling unrivaled in our time.

Worthwhile!
In this rather compact essay, Bill Bryson discusses what is known of William Shakespeare’s life.
A bit disappointingly, it turns out this is rather limited. No one is even sure of the order in which the plays were written and performed!
Still, it is intriguing to learn about the various theories that have been contrived over the centuries They are more a reflection of the sensibilities of each age than anything that can be proven as fact.
Narration is made by the author himself and his warm, personal style add much to the listener’s enjoyment.
A short interview, perhaps from a British radio broadcast, is included as a bonus. Amusingly, Bill Bryson’s accent is then very much in tune with his interlocutor’s!
