Wolf Hall


Title Wolf Hall
Author Hilary Mantel
Call Number PR6063.A438 W65 2009
Location 2nd Floor Humanities
Rating Highly Recommended
Book Review Ostensibly a book about Thomas Cromwell, the behind-the-scenes "fixer" for King Henry VIII in Tudor-era England, "Wolf Hall" is so much more. It serves as a meditation on life, loyalty, and power. Readers either love it or hate it for its unique voice and style, but to me, it's so brilliantly written that it makes me want to break my pen and never attempt to write again.
