But when they started to look for someone to head up the Chicago office, Obama recommended his fiancée and resigned when the nonprofit began to court her in earnest. "At a time when the average age of our staff was 23, she was like drafting Brett Favre for the Packers," Schmitz says. "Michelle was 29 when we hired her.

Characters like The Roaring Girl's Moll Cutpurse, who flaunts social rules by wearing trousers and refusing to marry, and The Changeling's Beatrice Joanna - whose plan to hire a servant to kill her fiancé backfires when the hit man blackmails her into bed - are the architects of their own destiny, for better or worse...
