  • The Evening and the Morning is a historical fiction novel by Welsh author Ken Follett. It is a prequel to The Pillars of the Earth set starting in 997 CE, and covering a period in the late Dark Ages and under the backdrop of Viking raids, through the year 1007 CE. The book expands upon the history and founding of the fictional town of Kingsbridge, England, and the construction of the bridge and cathedral there (and the origin of the town's name is explained). It was released on September 15, 2020. The title is in Genesis 1:5. Follett has said that he has chosen biblical quotes for the titles of all his Kingsbridge novels as feels that they have a more powerful and epic feeling. A series based on the book is in the works at Legendary Television and Range Media Partners. An important aspect of the book's plot is that at the time, the Catholic Church has not yet gotten control of marriages, as it would in the later Middle Ages. In the Saxon England of the book, marriage is a civil ceremony rather than a religious sacrament; a man may marry two wives and in some cases a woman can also have two husbands; a husband may "put aside" his wife at his discretion; and inside the Church itself, Priests can and do get married, and are not yet bound to celibacy. Many turns of the book's plot would have been impossible in the later Medieval society, where the Church had a complete monopoly of marriage, polygamy and polyandry were totally forbidden and no marriage could be dissolved except by the Pope personally.
