This is a huge novel that follows five families through the world-shaking dramas of the First World War, the Russian Revolution, and the struggle for votes for women. It is 1911. The Coronation Day of King George V. The Williams, a Welsh coal-mining family, is linked by romance and enmity to the Fitzherberts, aristocratic coal-mine owners. Lady Maud Fitzherbert falls in love with Walter von Ulrich, a spy at the German Embassy in London. Their destiny is entangled with that of an ambitious young aide to U.S. President Woodrow Wilson and to two orphaned Russian brothers, whose plans to emigrate to America fall foul of war, conscription and revolution. In a plot of unfolding drama and intriguing complexity, "Fall Of Giants" moves seamlessly from Washington to St Petersburg, from the dirt and danger of a coal mine to the glittering chandeliers of a palace, from the corridors of power to the bedrooms of the mighty. 作者资料 肯福莱特 KenFollett 肯福莱特(Ken Follett,1949- )是当代大师级历史小说作家。1949年6月5日出生于英国威尔士加的夫,先后在哈罗·威尔德语法学校和普尔工学院学习,1967年进入伦敦大学学院学习哲学。代表作《针眼》《圣殿春秋》等。messengerpinterestreddittelegramtwittervibervkontaktewhatsapp复制链接
