Shakespeare's Henry V by Laura Lippman
The Elizabethan stage lacked scenery. The Chorus (a single speaker) apologizes for the limitations of the theatre, acknowledging that a Muse of fire, an actual sun, would be the ideal source of theatrical power, and that real princes and a real kingdom are superior to actors and their small stage. The Chorus then speculates: just as an actor plays King Henry, King Henry would play the god of war himself, would ssume the port of Mars.Joseph Wallace has published over fifteen books and dozens of articles on a wide range of themes, including baseball, natural history, medicine, and the invention of the light bulb. Liminal is his first published noir story. Laura Lippman deserves credit for suggesting it, especially since he's a lifetime New York Mets fan who remembers the 1969 World Series well.
