Plots and Players

By Pamela Melnikoff
(160 Pages)Ages 12+ Publisher: Jewish Publication Society, 1988

It is 1594 and young William Shakespeare is working on a new play, The Merchant of Venice. There is a growing anti-Jewish mood in England. When a Portuguese Jew, who has served as Queen Elizabeth's physician for years, is accused of plotting to poison her, the three Fernandez children attempt to convince the Queen to spare the doctor's life. Can the children save him? And will William Shakespeare begin to see the prejudice around him? Will he soften his portrait of Shylock, his play's lead character?
