In 2020, historical fiction books also tended to be more experimental in their narrative styles. Some books, such as 'Hamnet', played with different perspectives and time - frames to tell their stories. This allowed for a more complex and nuanced exploration of historical events and relationships.

For instance, in 'The Mirror & the Light', Hilary Mantel painted a detailed picture of Tudor England, from the grandeur of the palaces to the grittiness of the streets. This made the historical events and characters more relatable and engaging for the readers.
