Title : Dusk and Dawn - Ken Follett - book

• Summary

Before The Pillars of the Earth...

In the year 997, at the end of the Early Middle Ages, the English faced attacks from Vikings who threatened to invade the country. In the absence of the rule of law, chaos reigned.
During this tumultuous period, the destinies of three characters intertwine. Young Edgar, a shipbuilder, sees his life turned upside down when his home is destroyed during a Viking raid. Ragna, a rebellious young Norman noblewoman, marries the Englishman Wilwulf for love, but the customs of her adopted country are scandalously different from her own. Aldred, an idealistic monk, dreams of transforming his modest abbey into a world-renowned center of scholarship. Each of them will risk their lives to oppose Bishop Wynstan, who will do anything to increase his wealth and strengthen his domination.
In this extraordinary epic of life and death, love and ambition, violence, heroism and betrayal, Ken Follett, one of the most important novelists of our time, returns to Kingsbridge and takes us to the gates of Pillars of the Earth.
