Bring Up The Bodies by Hilary Mantel - Trade Paperback - Contemporary Fiction

BOOK TWO OF THE THOMAS CROMWELL TRILOGY

"Beautifully constructed...The wonder of Mantel's retelling is that she makes these events fresh and terrifying all over again....Mantel's follow-up is equally sublime."—Janet Maslin, The New York Times

Though he battled for years to marry her, Henry VIII is now disenchanted with Anne Boleyn. She has failed to give him a son, and her sharp intelligence alienates his old friends and the noble families of England. Over three terrifying weeks, Anne becomes ensnared in a web of conspiracy, while the demure Jane Seymour waits her turn for the poisoned wedding ring. To ensure Jane's ascent, Thomas Cromwell must ally himself with his enemies, the papist aristocracy—and face the price that he must pay for Anne Boleyn's head. In this masterful sequel to Wolf Hall, Hilary Mantel vividly reimagines the downfall of England's most infamous queen as never before, with unparalleled intelligence and grace.
