came at a needed time.
I am still reading The Evening and The Morning! 600+ pages in to this 900 page book.
It is set in 1000 AD England, but clearly the author tapped into contemporary currents when he wrote it in 2020 (publication date). It is about corrupt power - church and state, which were one at that time.
I didn't know the publication date at 1st, and this is the 1st of Follett's that I've read. It is a prequel to his Kingbridge series. I have no idea what the other books in the series are about! I'm enjoying it, even though it's not high art. I understand he researches thoroughly and it's a fast, easy read.
I'd already discovered he wrote it in 2020, but when I came across the following line, it dropped me in my tracks: in dialogue, a character says to another (words to the effect): "I've been making trouble. GOOD TROUBLE."
Total giveaway....
