About this item
Historical, Historical Fiction, Medieval, Religion, British Literature, Fiction, 13th Century
‘Robyn Cadwallader does the real work of historical fiction, creating a detailed, sensuous and richly imagined shard of the past. She has successfully placed her narrator, the anchoress, in that tantalizing, precarious, delicate realm: convincingly of her own distant era, yet emotionally engaging and vividly present to us in our own.’ Geraldine Brooks’An intense, atmospheric and very assured debut, this is one of the most eagerly anticipated novels of the year … This one will will appeal to readers who loved Hannah Kent’s bestselling Burial Rites.’ Caroline BaumSet in the twelfth century, The Anchoress tells the story of Sarah, only seventeen when she chooses to become an anchoress, a holy woman shut away in a small cell, measuring seven paces by nine, at the side of the village church. Fleeing the grief of losing a much-loved sister in childbirth and the pressure to marry, she decides to renounce the world, with all its dangers, desires and temptations, and to commit herself to a life of prayer and service to God. But as she slowly begins to understand, even the thick, unforgiving walls of her cell cannot keep the outside world away, and it is soon clear that Sarah’s body and soul are still in great danger… Sometimes freedom means locking yourself away …
