Historical Fiction Books

You can often tell  when someone is a great reader, when they’ve  absorbed the wisdom  of those who’ve come before and contemplated with themselves  and the world via the  medium of the all-conquering pen. To know the stories of  great authors is to augment our humanity. Historical fiction is  therefore a category we couldn’t miss out on at  Sherlock & Pages. Through these books  we might  not only know  the great  events of  our  past but to  feel them too. What a privilege that is  and one which we invite you to share with us through works such as Hilary Mantel’s ‘Wolf Hall’ trilogy  or Min Jin Lee’s Korean epic ‘Pachinko.’
