Beskrivelse
A gripping story set in 1596 Stratford-upon-Avon, where a young girl falls ill, and her twin brother Hamnet desperately seeks help. Their parents are away, unaware of the tragedy that is about to unfold.
A moving novel inspired by the life of the son of a famous playwright, whose name lives on in one of the greatest plays ever written.
On a summer day in 1596, a young girl in Stratford-upon-Avon suddenly falls ill with a fever and retreats to her bed. Her twin brother, Hamnet, frantically searches for someone to help her, but the house is empty.
Their mother, Agnes, is tending to her medicinal herb garden over a mile away, while their father is working in London. Neither parent realizes that Hamnet’s fate is sealed and that he will not survive the week.
Hamnet is a novel inspired by the life of the son of a renowned playwright-a boy whose story has been largely forgotten but whose name was given to one of the most celebrated plays in history.
