To celebrate the opening of Chloé Zhao’s HAMNET at the Belcourt on Wed, Nov 26, join us for a guided discussion of Maggie O’Farrell’s 2020 novel on which the film is based. In 2020, O’Farrell’s book received the Women’s Prize for Fiction and National Book Critics Circle Award for Fiction. The discussion is free with an advance-purchase ticket to HAMNET (RSVP with your ticket purchase), and capacity is limited.
Haven’t read the book yet? Ciona Rouse, owner of Bard’s Towne Books & Bourbon, will attend the discussion with copies of Hamnet for purchase.
