He’s walking a tightrope of family-husband and artist-writer and it’s testing him. She sees that a couple script pages later (and dialogue from the film): “He needs to go to London,” says Agnes to her brother.
It’s what started my fascination! I saw it and couldn’t stop bitterly sobbing. Heartbreaking. I’m aching to meet one IRL so I can apologize for everything stupid humans do.
Next task is to read the chapter of Hamnet in which that scene appears and see if you get yet another perspective. Then we can discuss while sharing a basket of calama... I mean chicken wings!
I loved that Hamnet scene. Among other things, it depicts so well the frustrations of a writer.

I loved this about her, that, in that moment, she didn't think of herself (the happiness of being with him), but of what he needed to survive.
Octopi are so fascinating. Have you heard about them escaping from lab tanks? They are escape artists!
I watch octopus videos to learn and relax. They are also solitary, which I totally relate with.
Have you seen the documentary “My Octopus Teacher”? It’s pretty astounding.

Octopi scare me. And I have used up all empathy for the year. Maybe next year for those gross looking SOBs.
They have big hearts even for multi-limbed creatures who also eye you with great suspicion and possibly dismay. 🤣
I’m sure they’d eye the shit out of me, hence the fear!
They’re onto you, Coach. If one tentacle hits your oh so solid flesh, they’ve got you sussed. 🤯
I feel ya!
