Her twin brother, Hamnet, searches everywhere for help.  Why is nobody at home? \u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eTheir 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 one of the children will not survive the week.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eHamnet is a novel inspired by the son of a famous playwright.  It is a story of the bond between twins, and of a marriage pushed to the brink by grief. It is also the story of a kestrel and its mistress; flea that boards a ship in Alexandria; and a glovemaker's son who flouts convention in pursuit of the woman he loves. Above all, it is a tender and unforgettable reimagining of a boy whose life has been all but forgotten, but whose name was given to one of the most celebrated plays ever written.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Maggie O'Farrell","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43173822922995,"sku":"9781472223791","price":49.99,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0634\/4284\/5939\/products\/9781472223791.jpg?v=1662060656","url":"https:\/\/www.harryhartog.com.au\/products\/hamnet-maggie-ofarrell-9781472223791","provider":"Harry Hartog Bookseller","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
