Detailed explanation-1: -Not long after losing his son, William wrote “The Tragedy of Hamlet, ” a play about the depths of grief and the impossible quest for justice. Rather than tracking the Bard, O’Farrell has focused on Shakespeare’s wife and three children (Susannah, the eldest, and Hamnet and Judith, 11).
Detailed explanation-2: -Hamnet died at the age of 11 and was buried in the churchyard at Holy Trinity in Stratford-upon-Avon on 11 August 1596. The cause of death was not routinely recorded in the parish records, so Hamnet’s death is unknown and it is not clear whether his father was able to attend his funeral in Stratford.
