It has been one long hiatus, a lot of things happening in life took over my attention. I don't think I need to explain myself, it is 2020 after all. But now that I am back and have new books on my shelves again that I cannot wait to devour one by one.

When this collection first reached home I was visibly suprised to notice that they were all fiction. Some weeks ago I had written this really long entry into my journal where I talked about how it was almost getting nerve wrecking for me to pick a good, fresh fiction novel again because of how choosy I had become over the years. I had transitioned to non-fiction a long time ago as I thought everyone does eventually and also, it suited my academic needs very well back then. And ever since then, other than a few short stories here and there, or some really mad popular novels that I am recommended more than a dozen times, I had hardly gone beyond the non-fiction genre. Coming back home during this pandemic I found myself in front of a stack of all fiction novellas from my preferences 6 years ago. I am embarassed to say that I immediately looked down upon them and proceeded to read a few memoirs and academic papers on my laptop instead. The fact that I ended with this stack right here shows how I did not stick to the heavy stuff like I planned to either.

I am learning about my own reading habits, with a lot of introspection involved. I am consciously trying to change a few things that I find problematic right now even if they weren't a few years back. It is a process, and all I need is some patience and more books around me.

A king's voracious appetite for women. An underdog's attempt at survival. It is ironic to call Thomas Cromwell an underdog. He has robbed the monasteries, noble families pay him to stay in the royal good books, he helped the king get rid of one wife and then another. And yet he IS an underdog. He doesn't belong amongst the upper echelons of society- a fact he is reminded of often. Cromwell does what he does, first to save his master, then to satisfy the whims of his king and by then he is too far gone to turn back. Just like all paths of good or evil. "His speech is low and rapid, his manner assured; he is at home in courtroom or waterfront, bishop's palace or inn yard. He can draft a contract, train a falcon, draw a map, stop a street fight, furnish a house and fix a jury.He will quote you a nice point in the old authors, from Plato to Plautus and back again." We meet him in this book amongst turmoil. Anne hasn't birthed a son & Henry is impatient for another queen-third time lucky, who knows? Cromwell spins a web of deceit, lies and mirages, taking to task all those who were instrumental in the downfall of his master- the Cardinal. The man is at war, slaying those who crossed him, letting them dig their graves so all he has to do is nudge them into it. He will run out of luck, because we do know the end of such men. They fall prey to the same whims they cater to. So I cannot help but feel awful because Mantel has shown it so remarkably well that we are too good, or too bad in others' stories about us. It just depends on who is writing that bit of history. I admire this fictitious Cromwell's control. Every word is weighed and spoken. Every thought thought and concealed. Every hurt remembered, every kindness repaid. He is loyal. Even to a dead master. He is loving. To his children- sired and adopted. He is loved- by his kids and his servants. Isn't that saying something? I am in awe of Mantel's skill, nay magic. A story we know so well and she can tell it again and hold us by the throats- historical fiction, fiction too has never been as bewitching. #thomascromwell #hilarymantelbooks #hilarymantel #wolfhall #wolfhalltrilogy #bringupthebodies (at Delhi, India) https://www.instagram.com/p/CggnIpiLmW3/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
