Ah, the cutting-edge journalism of our era: requiring #JavaScript and cookie consent to read about a tragedy. 💀 Clearly, nothing says "serious reporting" like a tech hurdle before unveiling grave matters. 🙄

McEwan’s Nutshell is more than a retelling of Hamlet, it’s a 21st-century tragedy.
An unborn child narrates betrayal, fear, love, complicity, and unbearable awareness.
We admire him more than we pity him.
Perhaps empathy is reserved for those who remain silent.
This is Hamlet, reimagined, and the tragedy of being born into a broken world has never been told more brilliantly.
