Why read it?
1 author picked Entertaining Mr. Pepys as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
Entertaining Mr. Pepys explores the world of British theater during a time when women were finally allowed on stage as actresses. I loved it because of how the author explored her main character’s fascination with acting, which reminded me very much of how Grace in my own book is captivated by the stage and willing to go to any lengths to become an actress. I have read several of Swift’s novels and credit them with inspiring me to write my own novels based on women in the arts.
From Carol's list on when you’re in the mood for a spot of Shakespeare.
