Book description
"At once tender, poetic and ferocious, Enter The Body breathes new life into the Bard's most tragic heroines. More than a tribute to Shakespeare, this kaleidoscopic, ambitious novel-in-verse gives Juliet, Ophelia, Cordelia, and Lavinia the chance to tell their own stories full of passion, justice, sisterhood, and love. Simply spectacular."-Michael…

Why read it?
1 author picked Enter the Body as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
Enter the Body is a breathtakingly original novel-in-verse that features three famous female characters from Shakespeare plays rewriting their narratives on their own terms. No longer tragic figures doomed to die, mere bodies on stage, they create stories of empowerment and conscious choices. The three characters—Juliet, Ophelia and Cordelia—each had distinct voices and poetry styles and the way the author interweaves their stories with heated discussions among many of Shakespeare’s other female characters in the trap room under a stage is fascinating and like nothing else I’ve ever read.
