"Hamnet and Judith" by Maggie O'Farrell, also published simply as "Hamnet," is a beautifully crafted historical novel that reimagines the life of William Shakespeare’s family, focusing on his son, Hamnet, and his wife, Agnes (more commonly known as Anne Hathaway). The novel is set in the late 16th century in Stratford-upon-Avon, England, and paints a vivid picture of the domestic life of the Shakespeare family, offering an intimate look at the people behind one of the world’s greatest literary figures. The story centers on the emotional impact of the death of Hamnet, Shakespeare’s only son, who dies at the age of eleven, likely from the bubonic plague. The novel explores the deep bond between Hamnet and his twin sister, Judith, as well as the profound grief that follows Hamnet’s death.
