The Death of Shakespeare is a novel of historical fiction that imagines how the plays attributed to William Shakespeare were written by Edward de Vere, the 17th Earl of Oxford, with occasional help from the Bard himself.

There is no record of his education, if he had any.

Story
Like the Roman matron for whom she is named, plain but clever Octavia seems destined for abandonment. Handsome, fun-loving and heir to an earldom, Dorian is the opposite. In Regency London, life for him is a game in which other people, including Octavia, are his pawns. Everyone loves him until he does the unspeakable: he runs off with anther man's wife. Despite the permanent ache in her heart, Octavia spends her early and middle years building a life she loves as a village apothecary with people who love and appreciate her. Exiled Dorian spends most of his in regret.

Un texte sur le pouvoir émancipateur de la littérature, qui est aussi un pouvoir de consolation et de réconciliation avec la vie. Toute mon adolescence, j'ai entendu parler des personnages d' À la recherche du temps perdu, persuadée qu'ils étaient des cousins que je n'avais pas encore rencontrés. À la maison, les répliques de Charlus, les vacheries de la duchesse de Guermantes se confondaient avec les bons mots entendus à table, sans solution de continuité entre fiction et réalité.

День, который мы празднуем — история, вышедшая из-под пера популярного американского новеллиста О. Генри (англ. O. Henry, 1862–1910). Попугай, бездумно повторяя заученные слова, заставил друзей вспомнить о днях лишений на банановых плантациях далекой Коста-Рики. Писатель также прославился благодаря рассказам "Фараон и хорал", "Сыщики", "Момент победы", "Закон и порядок", "День, который мы празднуем", "Тысяча долларов", "Багдадская птица" и "Орден золотого колечка".
