Hamlet and the Psychotherapist
Hamlet and the Psychotherapist
This fascinating novel prompts many unusual questions about the most famous play in the world.
It explores the mind of the quizzical Hamlet himself, and of Shakespeare - if he was indeed, the author.
The novel poses critical literary and cultural questions.
Can Hamlet be saved from himself and can William Shakespeare be proved to be the author of the play and of others attributed to him?
The novel features a 21st-century Psychotherapist of mixed race, Jacob Fortune, who doesn't like the age-old classic play - especially its conclusion. Nor does he believe that the name 'William Shakespeare' was anything other than a 'commercial marketing ploy' for the Elizabethan theatre.
In detective style, through virtual reality, he travels back to try to get into the mind of Hamlet, in order to change the narrative of the play and also to prove himself right about the false claim of authorship. Jacob's story takes us on a light-heated journey through the England of Elizabeth I, but is intertwined with his own experience of love and relationships in the reign of Elizabeth II. He and his colleagues in 4 Psychotherapists for U have troubles of their own, regarding what it means to be male/female/non-binary in their gender identity. The novel has surprising twists and turns along the way.
