From one of our finest living writers, Wolf Hall, is that very rare thing: a truly great English novel, one that explores the intersection of individual psychology and wider politics. With a vast array of characters, and richly overflowing with incident, it peels back history to show us Tudor England as a half-made society, moulding itself with great passion and suffering and courage.
It’s been the most successful Booker Prize winner of all time, and we’re delighted to announce its arrival on the App Store, and to add Fourth Estate to our growing list of partners.
The full version contains the text in its entirety, Tudor and Yorkist family trees, extra articles by Hilary Mantel, an already brimming news feed, and a brilliant 30-minute video discussion between Hilary and renowned historian David Starkey. The free version comes with the first chapter, the news feed and a clip of the video discussion.
The app is already getting some great promotion, both on the streets of London…
… in the press…
… and on the App Store…
Hilary is just beginning a huge tour of events, but tickets are going fast, with some venues already sold out, so head on over to the in-app news feed (available in both the full and free versions of the app) before it’s too late!
