Описание: The real Wolf Hall - a time traveller's guide to daily life in Tudor England. The Tudor era encompasses some of the greatest changes in our history. But while we know about the historical dramas of the times - most notably in the court of Henry VIII - what was life really like for a commoner like you or me? To answer this question, the renowned "method historian" and historical advisor to the BBC Ruth Goodman has slept, washed and cooked as the Tudors did - so you don't have to! She is your expert guide to this fascinating era, drawing on years of practical historical study to show how our ancestors coped with everyday life, from how they slept to how they courted.

Using a vast range of sources, she takes you back to the time when soot was used as toothpaste and the "upper crust" of bread was served to the wealthier members of the house. Exploring how the Tudors learnt, danced and even sat and stood according to the latest fashion, she reveals what it all felt, smelt and tasted like, from morning until night. "Ruth is the queen of living history, long may she reign!" (Lucy Worsley).

Описание: In debt after her husband's unexpected death, Meg Rosenthal secures a job as a teacher at a boarding school. She and her teenage daughter, Sally, depart from suburban Long Island life and embark on a new life in Arcadia Falls, a beautiful but isolated small town that was the inspiration for a number of magically eerie fairy tales. With a hurtful rift growing between them since her husband's death, Meg is hopeful that the change of scene will provide her and her daughter with a fresh start. But it soon becomes clear to Meg that this isolated community hides deeply rooted, deadly secrets. After a ghastly, mysterious death, Arcadia Falls begins to reveal a disturbing dark side. Returning to the psychological territory explored in the beloved The Lake of Dead Languages, Carol Goodman's latest fictional foray is literary suspense at its most exquisite and haunting.
