Boy (2025)
A novel by Nicole Galland

From critically acclaimed author Nicole Galland comes a vibrant and thought-provoking historical tale of love, political intrigue, and gender-swapping set in the theatre world of Elizabethan London.

Alexander ¡®Sander¡¯ Cooke is the most celebrated ¡®boy player¡¯ in the Chamberlain¡¯s Men, William Shakespeare¡¯s theatre company. Indeed, Sander¡¯s androgynous beauty and deft portrayal of female roles have made him the toast of London, and his companionship is sought by noblewomen and -men alike. And yet, now at the height of his fame, he teeters on the cusp of adulthood, his future uncertain. Often, he wishes he could stop time and remain a boy forever.

Joan Buckler, Sander¡¯s best friend, also has a dream. Though unschooled, she is whip-smart and fascinated by the snippets of natural philosophy to which she¡¯s been exposed. And while she senses that Sander¡¯s admiration for her is more than mere friendship, Joan¡¯s true passion is knowledge, something that is nearly impossible for her to attain. As a woman, she has no place in the intellectual salons and cultural community of the day; only in disguise can she learn to her heart¡¯s content.
