Rezensionen

Praise for Franny Moyle: Wolf Hall but with pics… This is a great thrusting cod piece of a book. It is big, bombastic and richly brocaded... I take my feathered cap off to Moyle and her publishers. This is a triumph of book-making as well as biography. This sumptuous book is a jewel in its own right.
