The Thomas Cromwell Trilogy. 1, Wolf Hall
Edité par Fourth Estate - 2010
1520. Henry VIII rules England with his queen, Katherine of Aragon but he has no heir. His chief advisor Cardinal Wolsey is charged with the task of freeing Henry from the encumbrance of his marriage but Henry is subject to commands of the pope and Katherine is a devout and loyal catholic. Into this seething hotbed of tension and scheming steps, Cromwell, a self-made man with a formidable legal mind, shrewd and ambitious, emerges as a powerful player in the court’s games.
