Poor boy. Dark star. Spy. Transgressor. Genius. This is the thrilling life-story of Christopher Marlowe: Shakespeare's greatest rival and inspiration, the writer who transformed art and culture in England forever. 'A dazzling account of a dazzling life' STEPHEN FRY 'Sparkling, addictive reading' MAGGIE O'FARRELL 'As evocative as any novel' PHILIPPA GREGORY 'An unforgettable literary biographical tour de force' INDEPENDENT In brutally repressive Elizabethan London, artists are frightened; foreigners are suspect; crowds revel in animal fights and public executions. Into this crude world comes an ambitious boy whose uncanny ear for poetry and radical streak would transform England forever. Enter Christopher Marlowe. A cobbler's son from Canterbury, by the time of his murder in 1593 Marlowe is the most celebrated playwright of his time, setting the stage for an explosion of artistic creativity. Written by one of our greatest writers on the Elizabeth era, Dark Renaissance tells Marlowe's story: a dramatic tale of daring, scandal and tragedy which reveals Marlowe to be a blazing talent who helped break England out of the cultural darkness and into the light.
