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 he`ll 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 Wolsey`s 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. ...

This irresistible book is about: a father; his five-year-old son, Michael (intelligent, crafty, addicted to stories); Michael`s best friend Stefan (stalwart listener, equally addicted to stories); &, well-what else?-a story. Oh, & a wolf. It is (it`s what Michael always demands) a Wolf Story, which begins one night at bedtime & spins wildly on through subsequent bedtimes & Sunday outings to the beach & park in a succession of ever more trickily tantalizing episodes. Waldo the wolf is sneaking up on Rainbow the hen, when Jimmy Tractorwheel, the son of the local farmer, comes along. After that, there`s no knowing what will happen next, as while stalled in traffic jams or nodding off at night, the boys chime in & the story races on & Waldo finds if not necessarily dinner, his just desserts. First published in 1947 & wonderfully illustrated by Warren Chappell, William Mc Cleery`s Wolf Story is a delicious treat for fathers & sons & daughters & mothers alike. ...
