Jess Winfield co-founded the Reduced Shakespeare Company, co-authored the worldwide smash hit play The Complete Works of William Shakespeare (abridged), won two Daytime Emmy Awards as a writer-producer for the Walt Disney Company, and, most recently, authored MY NAME IS WILL: A NOVEL OF SEX DRUGS AND SHAKESPEARE, a New York Times Book Review "Editor's Choice" and a California Book Awards finalist. He has just completed his second novel (more details to come) and is working on his third.
MY NAME IS WILL, the book that critics call "HILARIOUS" and "IRRESISTIBLE!" is available from your favorite brick and mortar bookseller and online retailers in hardcover, paperback, and e-book editions.
The
AUDIOBOOK, performed by the author,
unabridged, with many silly voices, is available on
iTunes and
Audible.com.
“Hilarious,
fascinating... a cunningly
witty, frolicsome,
time-warping bildungsroman... But serious business
underlies the literary larkiness... Winfield's
high-spirited tribute is a celebration of the power of
language and story through which we learn who we are and
who we might be as we strut and fret our hour upon the
stage, bit players reaching for the heavens in a drama
beyond our grasp.”
LOS ANGELES
TIMES
“Happily
outrageous... well done, Winfield!"
CHICAGO TRIBUNE
"Bawdy puns, a
clever construction, and a deliciously
irreverent sense of
humor make this debut novel irresistible."
