pickThis was such a delightful book! I have never been that curious about Shakespeare‘s plays, but hearing Judi Dench talk about her experience playing different characters was a treat.
Loved the banter between Judi and Brendan, it was very entertaining.
If you are a fan of Shakespeare, Judi Dench or if you are just curious about his work (like I was), read this!
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

pickThis was a complete delight. Highly recommended if you are interested in Dame Judi, Shakespeare, theatre history, the RSC, or acting in general. I googled so many pictures and fell down so many Wiki holes, looking up people and productions she talks about.
pickMaggie O'Farrell is such a great storyteller!
This historical fiction creates a possible context for the birth of one of the most famous theater plays of all times. In the 1580s in Stratford a couple has two girls and a boy. The boy called Hamnet dies at the age of 11. The name of the father is never mentioned in the novel, but four years later he writes a play called "Hamlet", while we know that Hamnet and Hamlet are actually the same name.
Great listen! Makes me want to hunt down the film versions with Dame Judi so I can watch them.
Mercy itself, and frees all faults.
As you from crimes would pardon‘d be,
Let your indulgence set me free.

A glooming peace this morning with it brings.
The sun for sorrow will not show his head.
Go hence, to have more talk of these sad things;
Some shall be pardon‘d and some punished;
For never was a story of more woe
Than this of Juliet and her Romeo.
Exeunt omnes.
