263 Minutes **In the room beneath a stage’s trapdoor, all of Shakespeare’s tragically dead teenage girls–Juliet, Ophelia, Cordelia, and others–compare their experiences and retell the stories of their lives in their own terms.** *Enter the Body* gives voice to a cast of the young women who die in Shakespeare’s most iconic plays. Focusing on the stories of Juliet, Ophelia, and Cordelia, bestselling author of *Blood Water Paint* Joy McCullough brilliantly weaves retellings of *Romeo & Juliet*, *Hamlet* , and *King Lear* into a larger story about how young women can support each other in the aftermath of trauma. “At once tender, poetic and ferocious, Enter The Body breathes new life into the Bard’s most tragic heroines. More than a tribute to Shakespeare, this kaleidoscopic, ambitious novel-in-verse gives Juliet, Ophelia, Cordelia, and Lavinia the chance to tell their own stories full of passion, justice, sisterhood, and love. Simply spectacular.”—Michael L. Printz Award winner Laura Ruby, author of Bone Gap

The trap room beneath all stages, anywhere. It’s a room, but there are infinite corners for the ones who want to keep to themselves, or the ones who don’t know what else to do. You might recognize some of the women here. The one with blood on her hands, the one in her nightgown with a handkerchief and marks on her neck. You probably know the one who was burned in her armor too.
