 Shakespeare's Dark Lady - a novel by Ian Wilson
Through Amelia's story, Ian Wilson demonstrates that the Dark Lady was none other than Penelope Rich - the most powerful courtesan of her day and the first cousin of Queen Elizabeth I. She was born Penelope Devereux around 1563, the daughter of the first Earl of Essex.

This is the story of Shakespeare, Willoughby and Penelope Rich as Dr Wilson tells it in Shakespeare's Dark Lady, where he also proposes a new key to unlock the mysteries of the Sonnets.

Fleur is short and not as slender as she would wish, although perhaps the fact that she is mostly found in inns rather than training places has something to do with that.

 Shakespeare in Love: The Dark Lady and the Late Sonnets
Looking to Shakespeare's writing to glean information from his life is not a novel approach; scholars have been looking to his sonnets for centuries to speculate on the life (particularly the love life) of Shakespeare the man. Unlike his plays, the majority of the sonnets seem to have no historical or literary background.
Sonnets 1-126 are addressed to a young man, dubbed the "dark lad," with whom Shakespeare seems to have had an interesting relationship.
Instead, they concentrated on sonnets 127-152, written to a "dark lady" whose complex relationship with Shakespeare seems to have fluctuated rapidly between love and hate, adoration and disgust.

 Horror Stories - The Dark Lady - by Herbert Jerry Baker - The Dark Chamber
And so it came to pass that the strange enigmatic figure called Death had long grieved over his dark and lonely fate; and in the midst of the cold stone walls of his haunted palace, his ghostly city, his voice was often heard to cry out.
Often in his great despair would he wander throughout the vast darkness which covered his unnatural Kingdom that lies in lands unknown; repeatedly did those who cower and gibber in the never-ending night cringe before the harsh painful voice of their master, Death.
The very walls of his palace trembled before the wrath of Death and it was upon this very night, when his fury filled him so, that, as the last fading echo of his emotional outburst slowly died that a bright sudden light shone down from above and fell upon the city of Death.
