Germaine Greer on Shakespeare’s Marriage

Long-time readers might remember when I reviewed Germaine Greer’s book about Shakespeare’s wife. Well here she is a few years later, in a short and sweet article that paints a positive picture of Shakespeare’s married life.  Ms. Greer is quite happy in the belief that Shakespeare came back home to his family every year during Lent when the theatres closed.

The article then switches to a discussion of Hindi movie plots, which completely threw me.  I only stayed for the marriage bits.
