All the living
a novel of one year in the life of William Shakespeare.
by Henrietta Buckmaster
This is the story of Shakespeare's love for two women and a re-creation of Elizabethan England with the Globe Theatre at its center. It is against this background that Will Shakespeare lives his most crucial year; the mysterious Dark Lady of the Sonnets is seen as both beautiful and malign; Anne Hathaway, his wife is described as a vivid human being.

Work Description
All Buckamster works I have been privileged to read clearly understand and thus depict the inequalities between genders and people of wealth -- or not! Her work inspires us to be part of seeking greater justice and equity for all residents of the globe. All the Living is no exception; even though I read it in probably 1985, I am still moved by the many shifts in human thought she so ably intuited and expressed in this (as in all her works). All the Living is a historical novel based on one year in the life of William Shakespeare, the year he wrote Hamlet (I think that was the play!). In 1985 I borrowed All the Living on an interlibrary loan through the Alaska State Library. To my dismay, Amazon does not even seem to be aware of the existence of this great work -- glad you that you are.
