Article Abstract:

Micheal Wood's new biography of Shakespeare written to complement his BBC/PBS television series 'In Search of Shakespeare' is reviewed. Wood's biography is on the intellectual level of a made-for-TV movie about Shakespeare with a title 'The Man Who Was Hamlet or Stratford Confidential', which is long on fiction and short on fact, and that constantly reaches for dramatic effect at the expense of serious reflection.
