LONDON (Reuters) - British novelist Hilary Mantel unveiled the final installment on Wednesday of her Tudor trilogy about Thomas Cromwell, the blacksmith's son who rose to be King Henry VIII's most powerful adviser only to fall from grace and meet a gruesome end.
|
|
Keeping up with the capricious Henry, a king haunted by his own miscarried sons and fear of impotence, meant disposing of Henry's second wife, Anne Boleyn (the antagonist of Book 19353.) Mantel exaggerates the poverty of Cromwell's childhood and gives him a drunken, abusive father.

Still, it says something about both the inscrutability of the man and the ultimate opacity of history that even with Mr MacCulloch's exhaustive research—to add to more than a thousand pages that Ms Mantel has penned so far—Cromwell, ever-slippery, feels just out of reach.

While plucking a family photograph from the mantel of her dining-room fireplace, she set off an avalanche of picture frames, kids' drawings, candlesticks, Christmas ornaments, an Irish American Writers & Artists crystal award plaque, and a mysterious plastic soda bottle containing a slip of blue paper.

I was able to get one of the first reissues in Europe (it becomes available in the U.S. this fall), and it now sits, not by my bedside, but on the mantel in my living room, next to other beautiful items, like a midcentury Lucy Rie vase.

With amusement or pathos, engaging in any aspect of this sort of introspection serves as a memento mori: an exercise in remembering one's own death undertaken less flamboyantly than in the practices inaugurated by ancient religious orders — sleeping in coffins or displaying skulls on the mantel — yet still highly effective.

There are a lot of terrible examples out there, but when it works — when a deep sense of history (not just the props, but the spirit) is married to an authentic novelistic sensibility, as they are in the novels of Renault or Patrick O'Brian or Hilary Mantel, to name a few of the best — it's tremendously satisfying.

The publication of Hilary Mantel's "Wolf Hall" in 2009, followed by its sequel, "Bring Up the Bodies," in 2012 (Mantel is working on the third and final installment, "The Mirror and the Light"), was hailed as a genre-shattering moment: Here was a thoroughly contemporary and literary novel, with non-archaic dialogue, that happened to be cast with Tudors.

Which makes him an apt choice, even if Mantel does not intend it, to embody the secularizing forces that triumphed over Protestants as well as Catholics — because Cromwellism, mass murder in the service of secular power and commercial wealth, has just as strong a claim as liberty or individualism to define the world that succeeded Christendom's collapse.

In some of his best books — like "Ingenious Pain," his first, about an 18th-century doctor, and the more recent "Pure," about an engineer in pre-revolutionary France trying to clean up an ancient cemetery — he brings off the Mantel trick of plunging you so deeply into the past that before long you take it completely for granted.

This is thanks in large part to the many pieces of folk art: the cow and the birdhouse on the mantel; the wooden black-and-white cat on the coffee table that resembles Ms. Ahrens's late cat, Alfie; the model of a building that sits atop an antique farm cupboard; and a life-size wooden chef standing sentry in a corner of the dining room, holding menus from the couple's travels.
