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, and all the gaolers will owe him money.' England, 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 and need comes Thomas Cromwell, first as Wolsey's clerk, and 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 and deadly expertise in manipulating people and 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 and a king who fluctuates between romantic passions and 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 and wider politics. With a vast array of characters, and richly overflowing with incident, it peels back history to show us Tudor England as a half-made society, moulding itself with great passion, suffering and courage.
Hilary Mantel is one of our most important living writers. She is the author of eleven books, including A Place of Greater Safety, Giving Up the Ghost, and, most recently, Beyond Black, which was shortlisted for the 2006 Orange Prize.
这段历史看了很多各个角度的演绎,狼厅追剧在先,回过头来看原著倒反而限制了想象力和感染力。
评分Thomas Cromwell is remaking himself, and a sovereign. He suffices the King's needs while destroying a disgusting church, plus the despicable, people-burning Thomas More. The plot is delicately simple, yet scenes are magically present. The author could have done readers a greater service by replacing 80% of the "he" with just simply "Cromwell".
评分N's present.
评分历史小说能写成这样确实厉害。英国作家的戏剧功底深。
评分都铎宫斗 无法不拜倒在Master Cromwell的魅力之下 本部段位最高的Thomas 期待续篇!
都铎王朝解密 李若庸(国立台北大学历史学系副教授) 本文为台版导读 如果要读者票选一位印象最为深刻的英国国王,那么都铎君主大概抡元无疑了:从结束「玫瑰战争」的亨利七世、娶了六次妻子的亨利八世、化身「乞丐王子」的爱德华六世、登基九日便踏上行刑台的珍.格雷,到「...
评分1 在英国的历史上有两位著名的政治家姓克伦威尔。一个砍下了一位国王的头,他出现在雨果的笔下。另一个被一位国王砍了头,这就是本书的主角。 托马斯•克伦威尔,生在都铎王朝,原是英王享利八世的宠臣——红衣主教托马斯•沃尔西的心腹,其后托马斯•沃尔西倒台,他又...
评分历史小说与现在时态,似乎是不相兼容的二者,不过,英国作家希拉里•曼特尔的《狼厅》却奇特地将之融汇在一起,因为,“每件历史的背后,都有另一个历史”,曼特尔着意于挖掘其背面的幽微之处,为历史人物留出足够的人性空间,在发展流变中丰满角色的性格。于是,遥远的英...
评分本文发表于燕赵都市报,未经允许,请勿转载。 说起历史小说,我的印象还停留在《你往何处去》的年代。显翁大气磅礴、苍劲十足的笔法在脑海中留的烙印过于深重了,以至于当我捧起这本勇夺布克奖的《狼厅》时还颇有些不适应。尤瑟纳尔之后,很少读女性作家写的历史小说,乔治...
评分After watching the BBC TV adaptation of Mantel's novels, I went back and re-read the New Yorker profile of Mantel (http://www.newyorker.com/magazine/2012/10/15/the-dead-are-real) and was mesmerized once again. She is such a fascinating author! So the main c...
