Bring Up the Bodies (Wolf Hall, Book 2)
1 journaler for this copy...
A wonderful imagining of Anne Boleyn's downfall from the point of view of Henry VIII's MasterSecretary, Thomas Cromwell. It is a interesting story well-told. The reader is left to discern whether Cromwell is manipulative, loyal, ambitious, vengeful, clever or wise, papist or Protestant. Is he a creature of his age or the director of England's course? The reader watches as a blacksmith's son changes the course of English history.
And once again I wonder why we ever thought a hereditary monarchy was a good idea.
