A list has been prepared!

As I Descended by Robin Talley Hamnet by Maggie O’Farrell Ophelia by Lisa Klein Learwife by J R Thorp Hag-Seed by Margaret Atwood That Way Madness Lies by Dahlia Adler That Self-Same Metal by Brittany Williams Mama Day by Gloria Naylor Black Venus by Angela Carter (one story written about Midsummer nights dream)

I haven’t read all of these just yet and there’s an itch in my brain that I’ve forgotten something but it’s a start on retellings. 🫶

Not sure if this would really match your list but I have read Verily A New Hope which is Star Wars but written like a Shakespeare play. It was really fun!

Is the "Shakesy P" a Six the Musical reference? đź‘€I'd also like to suggest Monstrous Little Voices: Five New Stories from Shakespeare's Fantasy World by Jonathan Barnes. Heard that this was really cool
