"The book that the whole literary world can't stop talking about." --Marie Claire (Australia) "A considerable achievement." --Sarah Dunant, The New York Times Book Review England, 1255: Sarah is only seventeen when she chooses to become an anchoress, a holy woman shut away in a small cell, measuring seven by nine paces, at the side of the village church.
