Description
A photography book that brings Hilary Mantel's world to life. Zola once said, 'In my view you cannot claim to have really seen something till you have photographed it.' This book is the result of a long-term project by Hilary Mantel and her brother George Miles, who explored locations associated with Thomas Cromwell's life and captured their essence through photographs. The book accompanies extracts from The Wolf Hall Trilogy, including some published here for the first time. A new essay by Hilary Mantel adds to the narrative, exploring how we interact with history and its elusive nature. This collection of photographs reveals a world that is both shadowy and whimsical, offering a portrait of Tudor England in conversation with its past.
