A few years ago, we read Ken Follett's The Pillars of the Earth, nearly 1,000 pages of an epic saga concerning the building of a cathedral in medieval England. The story gripped me (although I had to skim through the violent passages which were pretty graphic). Now a miniseries on Starz, 7 of 8 episodes have not only aired on tv, but are available to stream on Netflix. One good thing about being able to watch this series is to remember what happened throughout the story. As usual, the book has many more details, but it seems that the character of the story rings true to me in the miniseries. Next weekend we will watch the final episode and that will help me remember how it ended.
