»Er blickt dich an und sieht, was du um jeden Preis verbergen willst.« Ein Mal hat Lucrezia den Mann gesehen, mit dem sie als Zwölfjährige verheiratet werden soll. Am Hof von Florenz wächst die Tochter aus dem Hause Medici auf wie in einem goldenen Käfig. Niemand versteht das künstlerisch begabte, feinsinnige Mädchen, das lieber mit Tieren redet als mit den Geschwistern – außer ihrem Zukünftigen, Alfonso, der ihr tief in die Seele zu schauen scheint. Bringt das Leben mit dem Herzog von Ferrara ihr die ersehnte Freiheit? Oder doch den Tod? »Maggie O’Farrell ist eine der aufregendsten Autorinnen unserer Zeit.« The Washington Post »Es gibt Romane, die stoßen eine Tür auf und schubsen einen hinein in ein Jetzt, das so nah, so absolut scheint wie der eigene Herzschlag.« Brigitte Woman über »Judith und Hamnet«, ausgezeichnet mit dem Women’s Prize for Fiction & British Book Award 2020
