Beskrivelse
The Mirror and the Light is the thrilling final installment in Hilary Mantel's acclaimed Thomas Cromwell trilogy, following Wolf Hall and Bring Up the Bodies. Set in turbulent Tudor England, it chronicles Cromwell's rise amid political intrigue and personal peril.
The epic conclusion tracing Thomas Cromwell's relentless ascent and survival in the volatile court of Henry VIII.
England, May 1536: Anne Boleyn's swift execution leaves Thomas Cromwell, a blacksmith’s son from Putney, to navigate the dangerous aftermath. While the king finds fleeting joy with his third wife, Jane, Cromwell pushes forward, relying solely on his intellect and cunning.
Without noble birth or military power, Cromwell faces rebellions, conspiracies, and the looming threat of invasion. Yet, his visionary mind glimpses a future England reshaped by conflict and ambition.
As the Spanish ambassador warns, when the king inevitably turns against those closest to him, what will Cromwell do? Mantel’s masterful narrative captures the fierce struggle between past and present, predator and prey, royal authority and the common man’s vision.
The Mirror and the Light offers a powerful portrayal of a nation and a man forging a new path through passion, courage, and relentless determination.
