Reviews
"The Wolf Hall trilogy is probably the greatest historical fiction accomplishment of the past decade." -- The New York Times Book Review " Wolf Hall , a decade ago, was a sensational character study that electrified an often-visited slice of history. The Mirror & the Light marks a triumphant end to a spellbinding story." -- NPR "Breathtaking.... The plot here is shaped as meticulously as any thriller.... With this trilogy, Mantel has redefined what the historical novel is capable of.... Taken together, her Cromwell novels are, for my money, the greatest English novels of this century. Someone give the Booker Prize judges the rest of the year off." -- Stephanie Merritt, The Guardian "Majestic and often breathtakingly poetic.... What The Mirror & the Light offers--even more than the two previous volumes--is engulfing, total sensory immersion in a world.... As with the most powerful and enduring historical fictions, the book grips the reader most tightly when, as is often the case, the writing comes as close to poetry as prose ever may." -- Simon Schama, The Financial Times "A masterpiece.... A novel of epic proportions [that is] every bit as thrilling, propulsive, darkly comic and stupendously intelligent as its predecessors.... The trilogy is complete and it is magnificent." -- Alexandra Harris, The Guardian "This is rich, full-bodied fiction. Indeed, it might well be the best of the trilogy simply because there is more of it, a treasure on every page.... The brisk, present-tense narration makes you feel as though you are watching these long-settled events live, via a shaky camera phone.... Mantel has...elevated historical fiction as an art form.... At a time when the general movement of literature has been towards the margins, she has taken us to the dark heart of history." -- The Times (London) "Hilary Mantel has written an epic of English history that does what the Aeneid did for the Romans and War and Peace for the Russians.... As Cromwell approaches his end, cast off by an ungrateful master, Mantel pulls together the strands of his life into a sublime tapestry." -- The Telegraph (UK) "Cromwell is a character for the ages.... The stunning success of the novels is in large part the result of Ms. Mantel's skill in fashioning a voice and persona that, while never anachronistic, make Cromwell seem eerily contemporary.... Mantel's genius is to make his 16th-century instincts, such as a willingness to decapitate anyone standing in his path, seem as plausible as his more familiar qualities." -- The Economist "Another masterpiece of historical fiction.... The Mirror & the Light is superb, right to the last crimson drop.... A complex, insightful exploration of power, sex, loyalty, friendship, religion, class and statecraft.... A stunning conclusion to one of the great trilogies of our times." -- Independent (UK)

Synopsis
" If you cannot speak truth at a beheading, when can you speak it? " England, May 1536. Anne Boleyn is dead, decapitated in the space of a heartbeat by a hired French executioner. As her remains are bundled into oblivion, Thomas Cromwell breakfasts with the victors. The blacksmith's son from Putney emerges from the spring's bloodbath to continue his climb to power and wealth, while his formidable master, Henry VIII, settles to short-lived happiness with his third queen before Jane dies giving birth to the male heir he most craves. Cromwell is a man with only his wits to rely on; he has no great family to back him, no private army. Despite rebellion at home, traitors plotting abroad and the threat of invasion testing Henry's regime to the breaking point, Cromwell's robust imagination sees a new country in the mirror of the future. But can a nation, or a person, shed the past like a skin? Do the dead continually unbury themselves? What will you do, the Spanish ambassador asks Cromwell, when the king turns on you, as sooner or later he turns on everyone close to him? With The Mirror & the Light , Hilary Mantel brings to a triumphant close the trilogy she began with Wolf Hall and Bring Up the Bodies . She traces the final years of Thomas Cromwell, the boy from nowhere who climbs to the heights of power, offering a defining portrait of predator and prey, of a ferocious contest between present and past, between royal will and a common man's vision: of a modern nation making itself through conflict, passion, and courage., The brilliant #1 New York Times bestseller Named a best book of 2020 by The New York Times, The Washington Post, TIME, The Guardian , and many more With The Mirror & the Light , Hilary Mantel brings to a triumphant close the trilogy she began with her peerless, Booker Prize-winning novels, Wolf Hall and Bring Up the Bodies . She traces the final years of Thomas Cromwell, the boy from nowhere who climbs to the heights of power, offering a defining portrait of predator and prey, of a ferocious contest between present and past, between royal will and a common man's vision: of a modern nation making itself through conflict, passion and courage. The story begins in May 1536: Anne Boleyn is dead, decapitated in the space of a heartbeat by a hired French executioner. As her remains are bundled into oblivion, Cromwell breakfasts with the victors. The blacksmith's son from Putney emerges from the spring's bloodbath to continue his climb to power and wealth, while his formidable master, Henry VIII, settles to short-lived happiness with his third queen, Jane Seymour. Cromwell, a man with only his wits to rely on, has no great family to back him, no private army. Despite rebellion at home, traitors plotting abroad and the threat of invasion testing Henry's regime to the breaking point, Cromwell's robust imagination sees a new country in the mirror of the future. All of England lies at his feet, ripe for innovation and religious reform. But as fortune's wheel turns, Cromwell's enemies are gathering in the shadows. The inevitable question remains: how long can anyone survive under Henry's cruel and capricious gaze? Eagerly awaited and eight years in the making, The Mirror & the Light completes Cromwell's journey from self-made man to one of the most feared, influential figures of his time. Portrayed by Mantel with pathos and terrific energy, Cromwell is as complex as he is unforgettable: a politician and a fixer, a husband and a father, a man who both defied and defined his age.
