书籍简介

“充满了感性......非常特别。”---《星期日泰晤士报》评价

“闪闪发光的奇迹”---大卫·米切尔

两个不同寻常的人。

爱情将他们吸引到一起。

而谜团却威胁着让他们分开。

1596年夏天的一天，埃文河畔斯特拉特福的一个年轻女孩突然发烧，躺在床上，而她的孪生兄弟哈姆奈特只能到处寻找帮助。为什么家里没人？

他们的母亲艾格尼丝在一英里之外的花园里种植药草，而他们的父亲在伦敦工作。

父母双方都不知道哈姆奈特将无法度过这一周。

《哈姆奈特》的灵感来自一位知名剧作家的儿子：这个男孩的生活几乎被遗忘，但他却被赋予了和史上相当伟大的戏剧之一相同的名字。

WINNER OF THE 2020 WOMEN'S PRIZE FOR FICTION - THE NO. 1 BESTSELLER

'Richly sensuous... something special' The Sunday Times

'A thing of shimmering wonder' David Mitchell

TWO EXTRAORDINARY PEOPLE. A LOVE THAT DRAWS THEM TOGETHER. A LOSS THAT THREATENS TO TEAR THEM APART.

On a summer's day in 1596, a young girl in Stratford-upon-Avon takes to her bed with a sudden fever. Her twin brother, Hamnet, searches everywhere for help. Why is nobody at home?

Their 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 Hamnet will not survive the week.

Hamnet is a novel inspired by the son of a famous playwright: a boy whose life has been all but forgotten, but whose name was given to one of the most celebrated plays ever written.
