The Mirror & The Light is a historical novel by English writer Hilary Mantel. Following [Wolf Hall](https://openlibrary.org/works/OL464512W) (2009) and [Bring Up the Bodies](https://openlibrary.org/works/OL16547664W) (2012), it is the final instalment in her trilogy charting the rise and fall of Thomas Cromwell, minister in the court of King Henry VIII, covering the last four years of his life, from 1536 until his death by execution in 1540. Mantel's twelfth novel, her first in almost eight years, The Mirror & The Light was published in March 2020 to widespread critical acclaim, and enjoyed brisk sales.
