Der Film erzählt die Geschichte von William Shakespeares Frau Agnes, die schwer mit dem Verlust ihres einzigen Sohnes Hamnet zu kämpfen hat. Ein persönliches Drama, aus dem schließlich die Idee vom wohl größten Bühnenwerks des Dichters entstand: Hamlet.

Feminist historical fiction, that is, that family of novels reinterpreting the past through the female gaze—is booming. Why do you think that is? It’s so interesting. I looked at my book choices and realised that both Pat Barker’s Silence of the Girls and Madeline Miller’s Circe came out in 2018. I think the #MeToo movement had an impact on how they were received. With my own book, The Tower, there has been some focus on the way I’ve portrayed women and, specifically, women’s bodies.

Anyone who enjoyed Maggie O’Farrell’s memoir, I AM, I AM, I AM, or her Shakespeare-inspired work of fiction, HAMNET, will be delighted that her third novel, THE DISTANCE BETWEEN US --- originally published in the United Kingdom in 2004 --- is finally available in the United States in a paperback edition. An unusual multilayered love story, the book possesses the psychological acuity and fine writing that are hallmarks of O’Farrell’s other work.

Recent reading update:Continuing to dip into Daniel Mason’s North Woods. Each chapter, or episode, could stand on its own. It’s a novel worth taking my time over. Raced through two crime fiction novels, both with deep, dark looks at aspects of the human character. S.A. Cosby’s All the Sinners Bleed is a fantastic novel of a Virginia small town Black sheriff dealing with racism and corruption. It was definitely worth waiting for my turn to come up on the library hold list.
