Featuring Dr. Phillipa Sheppard, Lecturer and Undergraduate Instructor, Department of English, University of Toronto.
We invite everyone to ring in the holiday season with the annual Victoria College Graduates Holiday Lecture. Join Dr. Phillipa Sheppard as she discusses her review of the Maggie O'Farrell novel, Hamnet, on which a new movie was based which was screened at this year’s TIFF. The book reimagines the life and loss of William Shakespeare’s son, Hamnet, offering a poignant exploration of art, grief and legacy.
