內容簡介
As a new age dawns in England's twelfth century, the building of a mighty Gothic cathedral sets the stage for a story of intrigue and power, revenge and betrayal.
當他走過廢墟旁邊時。建造一座新的大教堂的前景似乎看來令人生畏瞭。那麼多石頭,那麼多木料,那麼多手藝匠人,那麼些年頭。他得掌握這一切。確保材料源源不斷地供應,監督木料和石頭的質量。雇用和解雇工人,不斷地用鉛錘和水平儀檢查他們的工作。為模型做樣闆,設計和製作吊裝器械……他不清楚自己到底有沒有那能力。
接著,他又想到從無到有的創造是多麼激動人心;將來有一天,在目前這塊除瞭廢墟還一無所有的地方,看到一座新教堂矗立著,而且能夠說:這是我修建的。
他腦子裏還有一個念頭,那是深埋在塵封的角落裏的,他簡直不願意對自己承認的一件事。如果他修好一座大教堂。上帝一定會對他垂青:他不知道他能不能要求讓埃格妮絲替他領受那份垂青。如果他能把建大教堂的工作奉獻給埃格妮絲。他會覺得她的靈魂是安全的,他也就可以放心休息瞭。
作者簡介
Known around the world for his string of smash-hit spy thrillers touched off by 1978 s Eye of the Needle, Ken Follett s taut tales -- spiked with more than a dash of sex appeal -- have earned this author (and sometime blues guitarist) a reputation as a master of international intrigue.

精彩書評
"Set in 12th-century England, the narrative concerns the building of a cathedral in the fictional town of Kingsbridge. The ambitions of three men merge, conflict and collide through 40 years of social and political upheaval as internal church politics affect the progress of the cathedral and the fortunes of the protagonists. "Follett has written a novel that entertains, instructs and satisfies on a grand scale."
--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."
--Library Journal

理想很豐滿,現實很骨感。跟路邊10塊錢一本的書沒啥區彆。
