By any other name a novel Cover Image Large Print Book

By any other name [large print] : a novel / Jodi Picoult.

Picoult, Jodi, 1966- (author).

Summary:

"In 1581, Emilia Bassano, a female playwright, isn't allowed to have her work shown in public -- so she pays a man for the use of his name: William Shakespeare. In 2024, her descendant Melina Green writes a play about her ancestor Emilia, but can't get it produced in a male-dominated theater world. Will she too choose to write herself out of history, in order to see her work on stage? Told in intertwining timelines and rooted in primary historical research, By Any Other Name centers on two women determined to create and succeed -- and see their stories live on -- despite the prejudices they face. What's changed for women in 400 years -- and what hasn't?"-- Back cover.
