Overview of The Assassination of Margaret Thatcher Book

Hilary Mantel is one of Britain's most accomplished, acclaimed and garlanded writers. Uniquely, her last two novels, 'Wolf Hall' and its sequel 'Bring Up the Bodies', both won the Man Booker Prize for Fiction. In these ten bracingly subversive tales, all her gifts of characterisation and observation are fully engaged, summoning forth the horrors so often concealed behind everyday fa ades. Childhood cruelty is played out behind the bushes in 'Comma', nurses clash in 'Harley Street' over something more than professional differences and in the title story, staying in for the plumber turns into an ambiguous and potentially deadly waiting game. Whether set in a claustrophobic Saudi Arabian flat or on a precarious mountain road in Greece, these stories share an insight into the darkest recesses of the spirit. Displaying all of Mantel's unmistakable style and wit, they reveal a great writer at the peak of her powers. Key Features: Hilary Mantel is the first British author to have won two Booker prizes, the only woman to have done so and the only writer to have won with two consecutive novels. Wolf Hall is the most successful Booker winner since records began, selling over 200,000 copies in hardback and 600,000 copies in paperback, in the UK alone.
