Description
Bring Up the Bodies by Hilary Mantel is a gripping story of power and politics in 16th-century England. In 1535, Thomas Cromwell's fortunes are at their peak as Chief Minister to Henry VIII, but he faces a daunting challenge: securing an heir for the king. As Anne Boleyn's fate hangs in the balance, Cromwell must navigate the treacherous waters of court politics to find a solution that will satisfy Henry and safeguard the nation. But neither minister nor king will emerge unscathed from the bloody theatre of Anne's final days. This is an astounding literary accomplishment by one of our greatest living novelists, offering a unique perspective on this most terrifying moment in history.
