    Australian-born writer, scholar, and journalist Germaine Greer is one of the most prominent feminist voices of the 20th century. A professor emerita of English Literature and Comparative Studies at the University of Warwick in England, Greer's ideas have continued to generate controversy since the publication of her groundbreaking international bestseller The Female Eunuch in 1970, and her fiery commentary regularly appears in the Guardian. A passionate and perceptive new work, Shakespeare's Wife reclaims the much maligned figure of Ann Hathaway--wife of England's greatest playwright--from scholarly neglect and misogyny, posing bold questions and opening new avenues for investigation and research.
