Will is a glover's son, who spends his days fitting gloves to pretty hands in his father's busy shop, and apart from the odd poem he's never before put pen to paper. But the good people of Stratford require a play, and with his pal Adrian Croft he finds himself responsible for putting one on the stage. Will's imagination works overtime as he struggles to find parts for his motley selection of friends and neighbours: school boys who refuse to wear skirts, Adam of Muscovy, Wat the plasterer with a chip on his shoulder and many others. Thank goodness for trusty Adrian - a friend and director whose belief in their endeavours stands firm.
Together they manage to assemble an unlikely company of amateurs - schoolboys and workmen. Fortune My Foe is the result, and Will hears the heady sound of applause for the first time

Recensione:
A real page-turner. Great for kids ... studying Shakespeare and his times (The Bookseller)
HEATHROW NIGHTS: 'This is an excellent parallel text for those reading Hamlet - humane, often witty, and stimulating. Its perspective should endear it to teachers tackling the play for the umpteenth time with a new set of puzzled faces, offering fresh angles from which to view that tragic hero alongside a perceptive depiction of the rougher edges of grief.'
It is a joy. (The Times)
A hugely enjoyable and dazzilingly clever novel (Adele Geras, The Guardian)
Stratford Boys brings Shakespeare thrillingly to life, just like imaginative productions of his plays do today in theatres all around the world.
a witty historical novel that bringd a slice of the past to life (south china morning post)
