Maggie O’Farrell has written eight novels, a memoir and a children’s book. In 2020 her novel Hamnet won the Women’s Prize for Fiction, and was also named Waterstones Book of the Year.

Maggie was born in Northern Ireland. Her parents moved around during her childhood, and she grew up in Wales and Scotland. As a young girl, she was very ill and almost died from encephalitis. She says her lifelong love of reading comes from her long stay in hospital followed by an extended convalescence, when she missed a year of school. Her illness also left her with a stammer, which she believes has profoundly affected her relationship with language.

She studied English at Cambridge University, and then looked for work as a journalist, writing poetry in her spare time. When she chanced upon a discarded computer, she decided to write a novel. She attended a creative writing course, where her tutors encouraged her to get her first manuscript published.

She lives in Scotland with her husband, the writer William Sutcliffe, and their three children.

麦琪出生在北爱尔兰。她的父母在她的童年时期四处搬家，她在威尔士和苏格兰长大。小时候，她病得很重，差点死于脑炎。她说，她对阅读的终生热爱来自于她的长期住院，然后是长期的疗养，当时她错过了一年的学校。她的疾病还使她患上了口吃，她认为这深刻地影响了她与语言的关系。
