Wolf Hall

One of the English instructors encourages students to read award winners. The 2009 Man Booker award winner, Wolf Hall : a novel, has arrived at the North Metro campus library.

I'm not familiar with either the book or the author. I wanted to know a bit about the book before I lept in to read it. I admit - it's almost two inches thick and I'm thinking- oh my, do I have time or energy to read this book?
