Two extraordinary people. A love that draws them together. A loss that threatens to tear them apart.
On a summer's day in 1596, a young girl in Stratford-upon-Avon takes to her bed with a sudden fever. Her twin brother, Hamnet, searches everywhere for help. Why is nobody at home?
Their mother, Agnes, is over a mile away, in the garden where she grows medicinal herbs. Their father is working in London. Neither parent knows that Hamnet will not survive the week.
Hamnet is a novel inspired by the son of a famous playwright: a boy whose life has been all but forgotten, but whose name was given to one of the most celebrated plays ever written.
‘ The story of Hamnet Shakespeare has been waiting in the shadows for over four hundred years. Maggie O' Farrell brings it dazzlingly, devastatingly, into the light’ – Kamila Shamsie
'A thing of shimmering wonder' – David Mitchel
