Ken Follett’s extraordinary historical epic, the Century Trilogy, reaches its sweeping, passionate conclusion.
InFall of Giants andWinter of the World, Ken Follett followed the fortunes of five international families—American, German, Russian, English, and Welsh—as they made their way through the twentieth century. Now they come to one of the most tumultuous eras of all: the 1960s through the 1980s, from civil rights, assassinations, mass political movements, and Vietnam to the Berlin Wall, the Cuban Missile Crisis, presidential impeachment, revolution—and rock and roll.
Praise for the CenturyTrilogy
“Few works set out with such a grand concept as Ken Follett’s new Century trilogy, but part one suggests that the series will be one of the literary masterpieces of our time . . . while grand events and themes are at the core of the novel, it is the richness of the characters and the intertwining of their often disparate stories that steal the show” — Sunday Times
“Perhaps no British author better illustrates the forces at work in international publishing than can give birth to, and then grow, a global brand... If such books deliver the simple pleasures of escape, maybe they hold up a distant mirror to their readers too” — Independent
“This is hi-octane storytelling, all the more powerful because the story it tells is, mostly, true. Follett’s command of the vast forces he unleashes is as impressive as the battle strategies of his generals, and in many cases more so... overall Follett is masterly in conveying so much drama and historical information so vividly” — Scotsman
“The master storyteller, Ken Follett, knits together British, American, German and Russian points of view from the start to the end of the First World War into a fascinating and remarkably fertile tapestry of society and politics” — The Times
East German teacher Rebecca Hoffmann discovers she’s been spied on by the Stasi for years and commits an impulsive act that will affect her family for the rest of their lives... George Jakes, the child of a mixed-race couple, bypasses a corporate law career to join Robert F. Kennedy’s Justice Department and finds himself in the middle of not only the seminal events of the civil rights battle but a much more personal battle of his own... Cameron Dewar, the grandson of a senator, jumps at the chance to do some official and unofficial espionage for a cause he believes in, only to discover that the world is a much more dangerous place than he’d imagined... Dimka Dvorkin, a young aide to Nikita Khchev, becomes an agent both for good and for ill as the United States and the Soviet Union race to the brink of nuclear war, while his twin sister, Tanya, carves out a role that will take her from Moscow to Cuba to Prague to Warsaw—and into history.
肯·福萊特(Ken Follett,1949— ),當代大師級驚悚小說作傢。1949年6月5日生於英國威爾士,在倫敦念完大學後曾任新聞記者,後專職寫作。1978年以《針眼》一書榮獲埃德加·愛倫·坡佳小說奬,蜚聲,年僅27歲。之後又有《聖彼得堡來客》《與獅同眠》等多部小說全世界,奠定瞭不可動搖的大師地位。
福萊特的作品一大特色是內容都有史實根據。曆史上的真實人物與小說中的虛構角色,天衣無縫地融閤在一起。其栩栩如生的人物刻畫、高潮迭起的情節鋪陳,精緻準確的細節描繪,讓讀者在亦真亦幻之中,與曆史時代共浮沉,和曆史人物同悲喜,得到無比的樂趣。
福萊特還擅長描寫愛情,用縴細動人的筆觸,捕捉男女間微妙的感情變化,使他的驚悚小說同時也是的愛情小說。

In 1989The Pillars of the Earth was published, and has since become the author’s most successful novel. It reached number one on bestseller lists around the world and was an Oprah’s Book Club pick.
Its sequels,World Without End andA Column of Fire, proved equally popular, and the Kingsbridge series has sold 38 million copies worldwide.

CHAPTER ONE
Rebecca Hoffmann was summoned by the secret police on a rainy Monday in 1961.
It began as an ordinary morning. Her husband drove her to work in his tan Trabant 500. The graceful old streets of
central Berlin still had gaps from wartime bombing, except where new concrete buildings stood up like ill-matched false teeth. Hans was thinking about his job as he drove. “The courts serve the judges, the lawyers, the police, the government—everyone except the victims of crime,” he said. “This is to be expected in Western capitalist countries, but under Communism the courts ought surely to serve the people. My colleagues don’t seem to realize that.” Hans worked for the Ministry of Justice.
“We’ve been married almost a year, and I’ve known you for two, but
I’ve never met one of your colleagues,” Rebecca said.
“They would bore you,” he said immediately. “They’re all lawyers.”
“Any women among them?”
“No. Not in my section, anyway.” Hans’s job was administration:
appointing judges, scheduling trials, managing courthouses.
“I’d like to meet them, all the same.”
Hans was a strong man who had learned to rein himself in. W
