Women's prize for fiction 2020
Golden Globes du meilleur film dramatique et de la meilleure actrice dans un film dramatique**
Un jour d'été 1596, dans la campagne anglaise, une petite fille tombe gravement malade. Son frère jumeau, Hamnet, part chercher de l'aide.
Agnes, leur mère, cueille des herbes médicinales dans les champs, et leur père est à Londres pour son travail. Tous deux sont inconscients de cette maladie, de cette ombre qui plane sur leur famille et menace de tout engloutir...
Une écriture splendide pour une histoire bouleversante. Celle d'un frère et d'une soeur unis par un lien indéfectible, d'un couple atypique marqué par un deuil impossible, d'une maladie " pestilentielle " qui se propage. Mais surtout, le tendre portrait d'un petit garçon qui inspira à son père, William Shakespeare, sa pièce la plus célèbre.

A beautiful story about family, loss, grief and love. At times the story felt long and boring. Not much happened. I did like how we got a past and present time line in the beginning that gave a good overview of all sides in the story.
I wanted to read this before I see the trailer of the film, then I saw the trailer and thought I better read it, then it shows up on tiktok with all those silly crying people only watching it, probably never read it, kinda skimming it a bit but at least introducing me to the soundtrack by Max Richter. So anyway I hurrird up and read it before tiktok ruined it and the film all the more.I enjoyed the book, enjoyed O'Farrell's style of writing. It is very cinematic and I can't wait to see if the film matches how I imagined it. I tried not to let the clips I had seen influence me too much.Her style didn't really lend you to becoming too close, or too involved in the story or characters. I don't think it matched the emotional depression depicted by all those crying people coming out of the cinema with their "after Hamnet" faces - streaming mascara, panda eyes. I did listen to the soundtrack and honestly that probably helped me cry a little more. I thought that it could have been more - the exploration of grief felt a little too shallow to me but I do not know how spoilt I was by watching the clips on tiktok. Still a beautiful book. Do think I ought to have read more of Hamlet though too begin with to pathways better understand the end.
nossa, eu demorei tanto pra ler esse livro. Comecei em 2024 e larguei porque eu estava me sentindo muito triste. Agora depois do filme precisei ler com urgência. Eu amei e ainda estou muito emocionada pra comentar mais sobre.
