Hamnet by Maggie O'Farrell

5.0

Absolutely marvellous. Shakespeare's name is never mentioned but is present all throughout. I felt what Agnes felt, I heard, I smelled, I knew how it was to be her. At a little life of sixteen, I do not know what it is to lose a child, but I know what it is to only be whole when the other is there.

"What is the word, - Judith asks her mother- for someone who was a twin but is no longer a twin?"
