Shakespeare on Sex: How Will’s Love Life Shaped the Plays and Liberated the World (Skyhorse / Simon & Schuster), a new book by LitMag‘s founding editor Marc Berley launched on Amazon last week and immediately hit #1 on Amazon in a few New Release Categories, including British Literary Criticism, also hitting #5 for all releases in the category, sitting between Eliot’s Middlemarch and Virginia Woolf’s Mrs. Dalloway.
“This book shows you how Shakespeare took the big event in his life and made fiction from it, over and over again. There’s no better lesson for a writer than the ones that are in this book,” Marc said.
“Many thanks to all of you who buy it and read it,” Marc said. “Shakespeare is the greatest writer who ever lived. This book will lift you.”
