The Pillars of the Earth [In 2 Volumes] Volume 2

The Pillars of the Earth is a grand panorama of the darkest years in English history, when the struggle for the throne and civil wars were a commonplace background to life. Before the readers unfolds a tangled web of stories of the most diverse people - from simple craftsmen to earls and members of royal families. A whole world of passions and crimes, intrigues, secrets, fears, love, and loyalty is recreated, against which the construction of the tallest cathedral in England slowly and majestically unfolds.
