Review: "By Any Other Name" by Jodi Picoult

Jodi Picoult's new book is once again a page turner.  She writes about a woman from the 16th century and a very distant female relative of hers in the 21st century.  She compares and contrasts the social issues that each woman has to deal with in her time period, which are eerily similar. She also throws in an interesting controversy involving Shakespeare.  Wrap this all together with her unique storytelling ability and you have a book that you won't be able to put down and will make you want to research the controversy.
