Join us at Goldfinger Brewing Company to discuss Hamnet by Maggie O'Farrell. Books are available at the Adult & Teen Services Desk one month before each discussion. For those 21 and over.

A short, piercing novel about the death of Shakespeare's 11 year old son Hamnet--a name interchangeable with Hamlet in 15th century Britain--and the years leading up to the production of his great play. A luminous portrait of a marriage, a shattering evocation of a family ravaged by grief and loss, and a hypnotic recreation of the story that inspired one of the greatest masterpieces of all time, Hamnet is mesmerizing, seductive, impossible to put down.

Contact the Adult & Teen Services department at ats@dglibrary.org for more information.
