"It doesn\'t take a psychiatrist to see what Shakespeare has done there: he\'s allowed his son to live." Novelist Maggie O\'Farrell has been fascinated by Shakespeare\'s son, Hamnet, since she was in high school and decided it was time for the rest of the world to learn of his story. Maggie tells Zibby about the years of research that went into weaving a fictionalized account of how the Shakespeares handled the grief of losing a child, and encourages listeners to reread Hamlet with fresh eyes.
