«Liebt ich am Himmel einen hellen Stern» is Eric Malpass's novel about William Shakespeare and Anne Hathaway, published by Rowohlt in hardback.
William is eighteen when he marries Anne Hathaway, eight years his senior; their first child is soon born. While William's talent makes him a celebrated figure in London theatre, Anne leads a solitary life in Stratford. The novel portrays that distance and the contrast between the Elizabethan stage and Anne's home.
First instalment of the «Shakespeare Trilogy», continued with «The Cleopatra Boy» and «A House of Women». German edition of 1974, translation of «Sweet Will».
For those who enjoy historical fiction and biographical fiction set in Elizabethan England.
