  • Edward Rutherfurd Traces a City, and Her Cast of Characters, in Paris Paris: the Novel, by Edward Rutherfurd (Doubleday Canada, 809 Pages, $37.95)
    Family sagas and a rich history Edward Rutherfurd traces a city, and her cast of characters, in Paris Paris: The Novel, By Edward Rutherfurd (Doubleday Canada, 809 pages, $37.95) Saturday, April 27, 2013 Down at his family's mansion in Fontainebleau at the height of La Belle Époque, a handsome young artist named Marc Blanchard remarks to an American painter friend who's visiting for the summer: "We French are so conscious of our history - it's everywhere around us - that we feel as if we have lived many times before." And with a smile, he adds: "This may be a delusion, but it's a rich one, and it gives us comfort." Blanchard is a central character in British author Edward Rutherfurd's new novel, Paris, a brick of a book that runs over 800 pages, has its own slick promo video on YouTube and is much in the vein of the other popular historical epics Rutherfurd has written: New York (2009), The Princes of Ireland (2004), The Rebels of Ireland (2006), Russka (1991) and three books on England: his debut novel, Sarum (1987), London (1997), and its follow-up, The Forest (2000). Neatly plotted tales that choose a place and weave through its centuries of history are the specialty of this bestselling (six million and counting), Cambridge- educated author. Lose your way, and you need some maps and a display of family trees to remember where everything is happening and who everyone is. Just as he has done before, Rutherfurd, now 65, provides these in the endpapers and opening pages of this, his eighth novel.

  • A Tale of Ireland Forever, Or at Least 1,100 Years
    April 28, 2004 A Tale of Ireland Forever, or at Least 1,100 Years By MEL GUSSOW Edward Rutherfurd's new novel, "The Princes of Ireland: The Dublin Saga," is 776 pages long, with hundreds of characters; it spans 1,100 years of Irish history, complete with maps and a family tree. Readers who have reveled in Mr. Rutherfurd's previous historical novels have again been undeterred by the weight or the detail. With almost 200,000 copies in print, the book is rising on best-seller lists throughout the United States, and it is No. 4 in Dublin. The novel, Mr. Rutherfurd's fifth, is a sweeping, carefully reconstructed portrait of a nation from birth to midlife crisis in 1538. Kings and conquerors share the stage with fishermen and farmers. Part 2, carrying the story through the 20th century, is promised for next year. Capitalizing on the book's popular appeal, the publisher, Doubleday, and the Irish Tourist Board have used it as a tie-in for a win-a-trip-to-Ireland contest. That is not to suggest that the book offers an entirely flattering picture of Ireland. Rather it moves far back into history to talk about blood feuds, slavery and human sacrifice. As Maeve Binchy said in a review in Ireland: "It is a giant, sprawling, easy-to-read story told in the James Michener fashion, about Dublin. When I used to teach history years ago in a girls school, I would have loved a book like this, something that would have transported the pupils back to the days of gods and goddesses, high kings and druids without any pain."

  • 'London': Greed, Lust and Glory on the Thames
    August 7, 1997 'London': Greed, Lust and Glory on the Thames By CHRISTOPHER LEHMANN-HAUPT Books of the Times Read the First Chapter Unlike the New York of the televison police drama, London has `LONDON' never been the naked city, nor has its population ever been eight By Edward Rutherfurd million. Still, a lot of people's stories are told in "London," Illustrated. 829 pages. Edward Rutherfurd's grand new novel, which traces the English Crown Publishers. city's history from the Druids to the Blitz. $25.95. In fact, so many people's stories are told that you have to keep consulting a chart at the front of the book, which lists the names of 131 characters belonging to some seven families, who intermarry, change their names, make fortunes, sink to poverty, act heroically, practice villainy, fight duels, make love, worship God, counsel kings, preach sermons, build cathedrals, write poetry and do all the other things that have made English history for more than two millenniums. How on earth does one keep track of all these people through 21 episodes featuring the families' successive generations? The author makes it reasonably easy. A Cambridge University graduate whose previous novels are "Sarum," a 10,000-year history of the city of Salisbury, and "Russka," a history of Russia, Rutherfurd is consciously trying to apply James Michener's techniques to the United Kingdom. He gives the characters in "London" prominent physical traits like the long noses that characterize all the members of the Silversleeves family, or the patches of silver hair and webbed fingers that keep showing up on the Duckets, or rememberable surnames like Bull, Penny and Barnikel (so-called because one ancestor, a fearsome Viking warrior, disliked killing children and gave the order before each raid, "Bairn ni kel," or "Don't kill the children.").
