Hilary Mantel – Wolf Hall – First UK Edition 2009
£450.00
First edition, first printing. Published by Fourth Estate, London, in 2009. This is a fine copy. The dust wrapper is bright, clean and illustrated with the classic Tudor rose motif. It has one very slight mark to the bottom corner but has not been price clipped. The boards are free from chips and marks but have some slight discolouration to the cloth. The text blocks are bright, clean and crisp; there is no foxing present. The internals are bright and clean and without previous owners ink. Overall, this is a fine copy of a true modern classic.
Set in the period from 1500 to 1535, Wolf Hall is a sympathetic fictionalised biography documenting the rapid rise to power of Thomas Cromwell in the court of Henry VIII through to the death of Sir Thomas More. The novel won both the Booker Prize and the National Book Critics Circle Award. In 2012, The Observer named it as one of “The 10 best historical novels”.
