The Number 1 New York Times bestseller from the author of My Sister?s Keeper and Mad Honey
'Her best one yet? JOJO MOYES
'A timeless classic? CHRIS WHITAKER
--
Student playwright Melina Green finds that even in New York, her words will struggle to make the stage, when the power is held by men. Inspired by the life of her ancestor Emilia Bassano, a gifted and witty storyteller herself, Melina takes a lesson from history, and submits a play under a male pseudonym . . .
As Melina discovers more of Emilia?s extraordinary life in Elizabethan England, she is determined to right the wrongs of the past ? and finally tell her story.
Two women ? centuries apart ? are both forced to hide behind another name.
But can either make their voices heard?
