Wolf Hall won the Booker Prize and the National Book Critics Circle Award in 2009, was ranked first in The Guardian's 2019 list of the best books of the century so far, and has been adapted for both stage and television to critical acclaim. It also transformed the reputation of Thomas Cromwell, "by presenting him as a brilliant and revolutionary strategist... Enraptured critics said [Mantel] had presented the historical novel as high literature, portraying her subjects not as cardboard characters from centuries past but as real people of contradictions and psychological complexity, relatable in any age" (Marshall & Alter).
