About the author

Maggie O'Farrell

I Am, I Am, I Am is seventeen chapters, each about a separate occasion on which O'Farrell nearly died: encephalitis at eight that cost her a year in hospital, a machete held against her throat on a footpath, a birth that went wrong, an amoebic infection abroad. Hamnet, about the death of Shakespeare's son and about his wife Agnes, took the Women's Prize.
