At the age of 61, Judith Shakespeare, a midwife-apothecary and twin of the long-dead Hamnet, must flee provincial Stratford on horseback to avoid arrest for witchcraft. Her traveling companions are a zealous Puritan woman and child who have been displaced by civil war - the bloody 17th-century strife between Royalists and Roundheads. Judith is also leaving her marriage, which has foundered since the wrenching loss of two adult sons to the plague. The sequel to 'My Father Had a Daughter', 'The Owl Was a Baker's Daughter' revisits this character for the ages - Shakespeare's sharp-tongued, witty youngest child, no less feisty in her maturity.
