Wolf Hall Winner of the Man Booker Prize 2009 Lock Cromwell in a deep dungeon in the morning, says Thomas More, and when you come back that night hell be sitting on a plush cushion eating larks tongues, & all the gaolers will owe him money. Engl&, the 1520s. Henry VIII is on the throne, but has no heir. Cardinal Wolsey is his chief advisor, charged with securing the divorce the pope refuses to grant. Into this atmosphere of distrust & need comes Thomas Cromwell, first as Wolseys clerk, & later his successor. Cromwell is a wholly original man: the son of a brutal blacksmith, a political genius, a briber, a charmer, a bully, a man with a delicate & deadly expertise in manipulating people & events. Ruthless in pursuit of his own interests, he is as ambitious in his wider politics as he is for himself. His reforming agenda is carried out in the grip of a self-interested parliament & a king who fluctuates between romantic passions & murderous rages. From one of our finest living writers, Wolf Hall is that very rare thing: a truly great English novel, one that explores the intersection of individual psychology & wider politics. With a vast array of characters, & richly overflowing with incident, it peels back history to show us Tudor England as a half-made society, moulding itself with great passion, suffering & courage.ISBN: 9780007230204 ...
