She envisions what would have transpired from if the infamous William Shakespeare had a sister of equal talent and intellect. Woolf compares and contrasts how William Shakespeare’s life was versus how “Judith Shakespeare’s” life would have been. Judith?

“The Myth of the Latin Woman” The set pieces in this essay are the bus‚ the hotel lobby‚ and the boat restaurant that Judith visits throughout her journey. At the bus she is being stereotyped as nice‚ naïve but at the same time as being dumb just for being a Latina. She takes everything with a smile.
