Romateatern på Gotland har sedan starten 1989 spelat William Shakespeares pjäser för en bred publik i den natursköna Roma klosterruin, känd som en av Sveriges vackraste utomhusscener. I augusti 2017 arrangerades teaterns tredje Shakespearesymposium, i syfte att bygga ett levande och vitalt nätverk av pågående samtal för dem som på olika sätt intresserar sig för William Shakespeares dramatik och tankesätt. Under symposiet träffades scenkonstnärer och forskare från flera områden för att diskutera ämnet Shakespeare och galenskapen . I denna antologi samlas manuskript och reflektioner av de medverkande tillsammans med bilder från symposiet och den unika klosterruinen.

Merrick, a young graduate archaeology student becomes embroiled in the task of discovering the origins of the skull. His interest in this bizarre case brings him into contact with the Inglish, a remnant tribe eking out an existence on the edge of Europe.
