Fludd

In Hilary Mantel's "Fludd," a mysterious curate named Fludd arrives in the bleak village of Fetherhoughton on a stormy night in 1956 to assist the disillusioned Father Angwin. As this superstitious community grapples with deep-seated rivalries and a lack of sentiment, Fludd's presence ignites unexpected miracles and transformations. Blurring the lines between the miraculous and the mundane, the story weaves together themes of faith, redemption, and the extraordinary within everyday life with wit and insight.
