A review by bookreadgirl21
Hamnet by Maggie O'Farrell
1.0
I lost all sympathy for Hamnet when he took five pages to get down a flight of stairs. He could have died a hundred pages sooner for all I care.
Maybe throw out all these colorfull and useless description of everyday objects or restrict yourself to one metaphor for every mundane shit a character does.
But don't listen to me, take my buddy Shakespeares' words instead (his pronouns are: he, him, teacher, bridegroom, husband, father, son, etc.):
Brevity is the soul of wit
This book's overwritten and shit
Your favourite playwright is spitting bars
I give this book one of five stars
