Synopsis

The no. 1 bestseller that inspired the major film starring Jessie Buckley and Paul Mescal

'A thing of shimmering wonder' David Mitchell
?

A LOVE THAT DRAWS THEM TOGETHER. A LOSS THAT THREATENS TO TEAR THEM APART.

The untold love story that inspired Shakespeare's greatest masterpiece.

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 tells the powerful story of Agnes and Will, and of the son whose life has been all but forgotten, but who inspired one of the greatest plays ever written.

??Fall in love with HAMNET this year ??

'HAMNET is a feast for the senses'

'One of my favourite books of the year. Simply gorgeous'
