I finished it yesterday. I can't say that I *liked* Wolf Hall, although I certainly didn't dislike it, and some of the writing was remarkable. I can say, though, that it felt strange today not to be reading more about Thomas Cromwell. It's as if that's now something I do, spend a part of my day inside Cromwell's head.
(Yes, I know there's another one, but reading it would leave me in the same condition; maybe after the third is out I'd read them both because I could expect closure.)
I like what I read in an interview last night with Martel: She comments that before she wrote the book, people assumed she meant she was writing about Oliver Cromwell, and she said, "No, there was a smarter one." Now, though, all of Britain knows who Thomas Cromwell is, and she joked that if he were to run in a general election, he might win it.
