Really looking forward to the adaptation of this with the excellent Anton Lesser doing the narration.
Episode 1: Beheading.
The Mirror and the Light, by Hilary Mantel
Episode 1 of 15
Anton Lesser reads the eagerly-awaited finale to Hilary Mantel's Booker-winning Thomas Cromwell series. Today: the beheading of Anne Boleyn raises difficult questions as to who will succeed Henry VIII.
Writer: Hilary Mantel is one of the UK's most distinguished writers. Her two previous Thomas Cromwell novels, Wolf Hall and Bring up the Bodies, both won the Booker Prize.

Thanks Becky. I heard episode 2 while I was driving home from Notts to Hants on Tuesday so must catch up. I loved the TV adaptation of Wolf Hall but have never read her books. |
