L'armadura de la llum

Follett, Ken

1792. A despotic government is determined to turn England into a powerful trading empire. And, from across the sea, war drums sound as Napoleon Bonaparte begins his rise to power and prepares a violent plan to become emperor of the world. New industrial advances are imposed relentlessly, shaking the lives of the workers in Kingsbridge's prosperous textile factories. Machines open up a world of opportunities linked, however, to the most ruthless cruelty. And as the outbreak of conflict seems ever closer, the story of a small group of people - the determined spinner Sal Clitheroe, the idealistic David Shoveller and Kit, Sal's brilliant son - will become the symbol of the struggle of an entire generation that wants to progress and fights for a future without oppression...
