The Mother's Fear That Delayed Maggie O'Farrell's 'Hamnet' for 30 Years ...Saudi Arabia

"This film was unapologetically raw and complex," one fan wrote on Rotten Tomatoes. "The acting was superb and story refreshingly well developed."

While the novelist said it took her three years to write, she admitted the idea had been in her head much longer: 30 years.

In a recent interview with People, she further explained why it took her so long to write Hamnet.

She also recognized that writing the story would be emotionally taxing.

So, some 30 years after the idea first began gestating in her head, O'Farrell finally started writing Hamnet. While she admitted that there was "quite a lot" of her son in the character of Hamnet, her daughter inspired her to write a very different kind of book next: Where Snow Angels Go.

"Unbeknownst to me, my seven-year-old daughter was looking over my shoulder as I was going through the final version of Hamnet," O'Farrell revealed. "And she said: ‘I don’t like this book, it’s much too sad. I want you to write a happy story next.’"
