In 'Bring up the Bodies', sequel to the Man Booker Prize-winning 'Wolf Hall', Hilary Mantel explores one of the most mystifying and frightening episodes in English history: the destruction of Anne Boleyn. This novel is a speaking picture, an audacious vision of Tudor England that sheds its light on the modern world.Cromwell, the blacksmith's son, is far from his humble origins. Chief Minister to Henry VIII, his fortunes have risen with those of Anne Boleyn, Henry's second wife, for whose sake Henry has broken with Rome and created his own church. But Henry's actions have forced England into dangerous isolation
, and Anne
has failed to do what she promised: bear a son to secure the Tudor line.
When Henry visits Wolf Hall, Cromwell watches as Henry falls in love
with the silent, plain Jane Seymour. The minister sees what is at stake:
not just the king's pleasure, but the safety of the nation. Neither
minister nor king will emerge undamaged from the bloody theatre of
Anne's final days
Comment:
The books of Hilary Mantel on
Thomas Cromwell are superb, grande. We all know the history of Henry
VIII but Wolfhall and Bring Up the Bodies are refreshing, sharp,
intelligent, emotional...so much more than 'just' historic tales. I give
a slight preference to Wolf Hall, because that book was groundbreaking,
a new take on this famous piece of history, seen through the eyes of
Thomas Cromwell. However, again Bring up the bodies is sublime and of
course tells the dark tale of the fall of Anne Boleyn, fascinating. And
Mantel is a great storyteller...
