Bestseller
Oprah's Book Club Selection
The “extraordinary . . . monumental masterpiece” (
Booklist
) that changed the course of Ken Follett’s already phenomenal career—and begins where its prequel,
The Evening and the Morning
, ended.
“Follett risks all and comes out a clear winner,” extolled
Publishers Weekly
on the release of
The Pillars of the Earth
. A departure for the bestselling thriller writer, the historical epic stunned readers and critics alike with its ambitious scope and gripping humanity. Today, it stands as a testament to Follett’s unassailable command of the written word and to his universal appeal.
The Pillars of the Earth
tells the story of Philip, prior of Kingsbridge, a devout and resourceful monk driven to build the greatest Gothic cathedral the world has known . . . of Tom, the mason who becomes his architect—a man divided in his soul . . . of the beautiful, elusive Lady Aliena, haunted by a secret shame . . . and of a struggle between good and evil that will turn church against state and brother against brother.
A spellbinding epic tale of ambition, anarchy, and absolute power set against the sprawling medieval canvas of twelfth-century England, this is Ken Follett’s historical masterpiece.
