Shakey's Madness: Does a Mental Health Disorder Reveal the "Real" Author of William Shakespeare?
by Robert BoogPublish: Feb 14, 2021Book Overview
Want to see how the prima facie case of Shakespeare's authorship gets picked apart? Want to see how the author rewrites Sonnet 116 (Let me not to the marriage of true minds admit impediments) because he thought the sonnet sucked? Using modern influences and old school logic, the old Shakespeare of Stratford-upon-Avon finally gets the boot!
Inspired by events of the year 2020 and the Corona virus pandemic, author Robert Boog realized that the entire state of California was shutdown like Blockbuster Video. So, while spending time researching (or rather watching daytime TV) he noticed several ads promoting, “Latuda”. What is Latuda? he wondered. What might it be used for? And of course, how much did it cost? The answer, the drug costs around $1,500 for a 30-day supply and it is used to treat people with bipolar disorder.
A little later that same day, Boog happened to be doom-scrolling on Twitter, and saw a video of the actor Sir Patrick Stewart reading a Shakespeare sonnet. After listening to the woe and despair of the “real” author, Boog joked, " It sounds like William Shakespeare could have used Latuda!”
Then he got to thinking about it seriously. Mental health symptoms, that is, and the “real” author of Shakespeare. What if the “real” author of the Shakespeare canon DID need Latuda? What if he had subconsciously exhibited signs of bipolar disorder in his plays, sonnets and poems? Would not this be like DNA evidence pointing to the “real” author of Shakespeare? After all, bipolar disorder affects only a tiny percentage of the population and would be like DNA evidence. Speculation? Not really, because how bipolar disorder is detected today in the year 2021 would NOT be any different from the 1500's.
It might sound crazy, but it's true.
Here is what Shakey’s Madness hopes to answer:
1.Why? If the “real” author was a nobleman, why would he give away his masterpieces to a commoner?
2.If William Shakespeare acted as a front for a nobleman, wouldn’t there need to be a massive conspiracy to hide the secret?
3.Is there proof in the author’s style, brilliance and personal imprimatur?

•I thought Shakespeare was old and boring, but this book is remarkably interesting, and I could not put it down.
•Well-written with a lot of factual information to back up the claims which is great!

•The best conspiracy-theory book on Shakespeare that I’ve read! I totally enjoyed it!
Are you at all like me and you enjoy conspiracy theories and true crime stories? Have you heard that William Shakespeare may NOT have written his own plays? You haven’t heard about it? You need to read Shakeys Madness by Robert Boog. He gives a good account as to who could have potentially written the plays instead of William Shakespeare!
