Hilary Mantel
Hilary Mantel (Reino Unido, 1952-2022) estudió Derecho en Londres y trabajó brevemente en un hospital geriátrico, experiencia que reflejó más tarde en sus novelas. En 1977 se trasladó a Botswana y en 1982 a Arabia Saudí, donde está ambientada su tercera novela. Obtuvo numerosos premios literarios por sus novelas y libros de viajes, pero su mayor éxito lo alcanzó con su trilogía de Thomas Cromwell, compuesta por En la corte del lobo, Una reina en el estrado y El trueno del reino.
