内容简介
From #1 New York Times bestselling author Ken Follett comes this spellbinding epic set in twelfth-century England. The Pillars of the Earth tells the story of the lives entwined in the building of the greatest Gothic cathedral the world has ever known-and a struggle between good and evil that will turn church against state, and brother against brother.
当他走过废墟旁边时。建造一座新的大教堂的前景似乎看来令人生畏了。那么多石头,那么多木料,那么多手艺匠人,那么些年头。他得掌握这一切。确保材料源源不断地供应,监督木料和石头的质量。雇用和解雇工人,不断地用铅锤和水平仪检查他们的工作。为模型做样板,设计和制作吊装器械……他不清楚自己到底有没有那能力。 接着,他又想到从无到有的创造是多么激动人心;将来有一天,在目前这块除了废墟还一无所有的地方,看到一座新教堂矗立着,而且能够说:这是我修建的。 他脑子里还有一个念头,那是深埋在尘封的角落里的,他简直不愿意对自己承认的一件事。如果他修好一座大教堂。上帝一定会对他垂青:他不知道他能不能要求让埃格妮丝替他领受那份垂青。如果他能把建大教堂的工作奉献给埃格妮丝。他会觉得她的灵魂是安全的,他也就可以放心休息了。 此书另有续集《无尽世界》

精彩书评
"Tom Builder's dream is to build a cathedral, but in the meantime, he must scrounge about to find a lord that will hire him. His search pulls him and his family into the politics of 12th-century England, as different lords vie to gain control of the throne in the wake of the recently deceased king. Prior Phillip, a man raised in the monastery since childhood, also finds himself drafted into the brewing storm as he must protect the interests of a declining church. Richard E. Grant seduces readers early on with a soft and deliberate voice that is like a loud whisper. However, his full range quickly reveals itself as he delves into characters with animated voices that exert their true essence. Even throughout the narrative, Grant musters a lively voice that imbues energy into the story. The only shortcoming is that the abridgment of Follett's 1989 novel proves to be too choppy. Though the story appears complete, there still remain abrupt moments throughout the tale. Penguin Audio's unabridged version is read by John Lee and runs 41 hours."
-- Publishers Weekly
"A radical departure from Follett's novels of international suspense and intrigue, this chronicles the vicissitudes of a prior, his master builder, and their community as they struggle to build a cathedral and protect themselves during the tumultuous 12th century, when the empress Maud and Stephen are fighting for the crown of England after the death of Henry I. The plot is less tightly controlled than those in Follett's contemporary works, and despite the wealth of historical detail, especially concerning architecture and construction, much of the language as well as the psychology of the characters and their relationships remains firmly rooted in the 20th century. This will appeal more to lovers of exciting adventure stories than true devotees of historical fiction. Literary Guild dual main selection."
