  • "La construction d'une cathédrale dans l'Angleterre du 12e siècle, tel est le sujet du récit monumental de ce romancier célèbre pour ses histoires d'espionnage. Recherche historique considérable qui sustente une superbe intrigue romanesque. [SDM]."
  • "England 1123-1173. Es ist eine Zeit blutiger Auseinandersetzungen zwischen Adel, Klerus und einfachem Volk, das unter Ausbeutung und Not leidet. Philip, ein junger Prior, dessen Eltern von marodierenden Söldnern abgeschlachtet wurden, träumt den Traum vom Frieden: der Errichtung einer Kathedrale gegen die Mächte des Bösen. Er und sein Baumeister Tom Builder, dessen Stiefsohn Jack und die Grafentochter Aliena müssen sich in einem Kampf auf Leben und Tod gegen ihreWidersacher behaupten, ehe Kingsbridge Schauplatz des grössten abendländischen Bauwerks, der "Säulen der Erde" wird ... Der Autor Ken Follettwurde 1949 in Cardiff geboren und studierte Philosophie am University College London. Zum Schriftsteller wurde er gewissermassen erzogen, da seine streng religiösen Eltern ihm in seiner Kindheit kein Spielzeug oder moderne Medien zur Verfügung stellten. Deshalb beschäftigte er sich mit Büchern und Geschichten.-"
  • "Ken Follett had long been a staple of the bestseller lists for his novels of intrigue and espionage. Then came The Pillars of the Earth, a grand novel of epic storytelling that readers and critics quickly hailed as his crowning achievement. Now, The Pillars of the Earth is available for the first time to a new audience of readers, in this attractive new trade paperback edition. In 12th-century England, the building of a mighty Gothic cathedral signals the dawn of a new age. This majestic creation will bond clergy and kings, knights and peasants together in a story of toil, faith, ambition and rivalry. A sweeping tale of the turbulent middle ages, The Pillars of the Earth is a masterpiece from one of the world's most popular authors."@en
  • "Tells the magnificent tale of a twelfth-century monk driven to do the seemingly impossible: build the greatest Gothic cathedral the world has ever known. The building of the cathedral, with the almost eerie artistry of the unschooled stonemasons, is the center of the drama. Around the site of the construction, Follett weaves a story of betrayal, revenge, and love, which begins with the public hanging of an innocent man and ends with the humiliation of a king. At once a sensuous and endearing love story and an epic that shines with the fierce spirit of a passionate age."
  • "Angleterre, XIIe siècle. Sous les coups de la guerre et de la famine, des êtres luttent chacun à leur manière pour s'assurer le pouvoir, la gloire, la sainteté, l'amour, ou simplement de quoi survivre."
  • "Situado en la Inglaterra del siglo XII, el clℓsico medieval de Ken Follett nos transporta a la ciudad de Kingsbridge, donde contra un trasfondo de luchas religiosas, se alza una gloriosa catedral gÓtica y se entrecruzan las vidas y ambiciones de cinco hombres y mujeres, creando una hechizante historia de poder, amor y muerte. -- Los pilares de la Tierra es el hechizante bestseller de Ken Follett y constituye una excepcional evocaciÓn de una p̌oca de reyes, damas, caballeros, castillos, pugnas feudales, y sobre todo, violentas pasiones."
  • "Tells the story of Philip, prior of Kingsbridge, a devout and resourceful monk driven to build the greatest Gothic cathedral the world has known; of Tom, the mason who becomes his architect -- a man divided in his soul; of the beautiful, elusive Lady Aliena, haunted by a secret shame; and of a struggle between good and evil that will turn church against state, and brother against brother."@en
  • "Im Alter von 14 Jahren brachte er sich selbst das Gitarre spielen bei und spielt auch heute noch in einer Blues-Band. Mit seinem Studium stellte er, wie er selbst sagt, die Weichen für seine Zukunft als Schriftsteller, da Schriftsteller und Philosophen viel gemeinsam haben. Beide entwerfen Gedankenwelten. Zugleich begann er, sich politisch zu engagieren. Nach seinem Studium versuchte er sich erst als Enthüllungsjournalist, war dort aber wenig erfolgreich. So fing er abends und am Wochenende an, Romane zu schreiben. Seine ersten Romane waren ebenfalls nicht sehr erfolgreich, erst mit "Die Nadel" (1978) gelang ihm der Aufstieg zum internationalen Bestsellerautor. Seine vielen Werke sind im Stil der klassischen Thriller-Dramaturgie verfasst und in 30 Sprachen übersetzt und verfilmt worden. Sein politisches Engagement ist nach wie vor stark, konzentriert sich mittlerweile aber mehr auf die Unterstützung der Labour- Partei.-"

  • "Los pilares de la tierra es una novela histórica del autor británico Ken Follett ambientada en Inglaterra en la Edad Media en el siglo XII durante un periodo de guerra conocido como la Anarquía inglesa, aunque también recrea un viaje de peregrinación a Santiago de Compostela a través de Francia y España. El autor sorprendió con esta novela no sólo a sus lectores, ávidos de thrillers, sino también a sus editores con su contenido y longitud. Fue publicada en 1989, y se convirtió en el mayor best-seller de Follett. Su secuela se llama Un mundo sin fin . El título ya de por sí es revelador. Una catedral gótica y su proceso de construcción sirven de excusa para la articulación de una historia que transcurre en la Edad Media, época de caballeros y escuderos, pero con un contenido sin anacronismos, en el que se entrecruzan sentimientos atemporales, como el odio, el amor, la venganza, o el miedo. El punto de partida es el ahorcamiento de un personaje extravagante, y la maldición que su mujer perpetra a sus acusadores. Por otro lado, Tom, un constructor, y su familia, comienzan un viaje sin retorno por los tortuosos caminos de Inglaterra, tratando de encontrar trabajo. Tom aspira a participar en la construcción de un edificio catedralicio, es su gran sueño. A partir de ahí, se sucederá una cascada de acontecimientos, y nunca mejor dicho. No tenemos ante nosotros un manual de construcción, sino un libro donde las vivencias de los personajes ocupan un primer plano. Una vez uno se adentra en la trama, no puede dejar de leer."

It is a shining saga of good and evil, treachery and intrigue, violence and beauty. Not-so-noble knights, righteous heroes, valiant heroines and both virtuous and immoral men of God highlight this story. They manipulate, and are in turn manipulated by, the political turmoil and unrest between the reigns of Henry I and Henry II."@en

  • "Noch nie war das Mittelalter so spannend! Der Steinmetz Tom Builder träumt vom Bau einer Kathedrale. Doch wo die Säulen der Erde sich in den lichten Himmel recken, werfen sie auch tiefe Schatten auf das Leben der Menschen. Krieg und Hunger herrschen in England. Fromme und Gerechte leiden unter der Willkür des Adels: der Baumeister Tom und seine Kinder, die geheimnisvolle Ellen aus den großen Wäldern, der weise Abt von Kingsbridge und die schöne Aliena. Sie alle bleiben dem Leser dieses gewaltigen Panoramas so unvergeßlich wie William Hamleigh, der finstere Baron."
