We're thrilled to welcome acclaimed historian Alison Weir back to Chorleywood, where she'll be talking about her compelling new novel, The Cardinal.
AN EXTRAORDINARY RISE TO POWER. A TRAGIC FALL FROM GRACE.
It begins with young Tom Wolsey, the bright and brilliant son of a Suffolk tradesman, sent to study at Oxford at just eleven years old.
It ends with a disgraced cardinal, cast from the King's side and estranged from the woman he loves.
The years in between tell the story of a scholar and a lover, a father and a priest. From the court of Henry VIII, Tom builds a powerful empire of church and state. At home in London, away from prying eyes, he finds joy in a secret second life.
But when King Henry, his cherished friend, demands the ultimate sacrifice, what will Wolsey choose?
