Hamnet

Set in 16th-century England, the story follows Agnes, a gifted healer, and her husband, playwright Will Shakespeare, as they raise their children, Susanna, and the twins Judith and Hamnet, in a quiet village. When the plague sweeps through their community, tragedy strikes, altering the course of their lives. Through Agnes's eyes, we witness the depth of a mother's grief after the loss of her son, Hamnet, and the ways in which sorrow reshapes love, memory, and resilience. Against this backdrop of personal devastation emerges the creative spark that will inspire one of literature's greatest works, Hamlet -- a father's masterpiece born from mourning.
