Maggie O’Farrell’s Hamnet is not your average Renaissance period fiction. Gloriously lyrical, this novel weaves a fictionalized account of the untimely death of William Shakespeare’s son, Hamnet, centering the narrative not around Shakespeare himself but Agnes, his free-spirited, intuitive, and perhaps slightly magical wife. Two timelines – before and after Hamnet’s tragic death - alternate to explore grief and motherhood through characters we believe we know everything about. Richly detailed, Hamnet revitalizes such a heavily trodden time in literature and immerses the reader like no other.
