The Wake is a 2014 debut novel by British author Paul Kingsnorth. Written in an "imaginary language", a kind of hybrid between Old English and Modern English, it tells of "Buccmaster of Holland", an Anglo-Saxon freeman forced to come to terms with the effects of the Norman Invasion of 1066, during which his wife and sons were killed. He begins a guerrilla war against the Norman invaders in the Lincolnshire Fens.

Els drets cinematogràfics van ser adquirits per l'actor i director anglès Mark Rylance, que en va llegir un extracte el 2014 al . (ca)

He begins a guerrilla war against the Norman invaders in the Lincolnshire Fens. Kingsnorth financed the work through crowdfunding on the platform Unbound after he did not receive support through a mainstream publisher, and he did not initially expect a large response to his work. However, the book was longlisted for the 2014 Man Booker Prize and won the 2014 Gordon Burn Prize. The film rights were acquired by actor and director Mark Rylance, and he read a section of the book in 2014 at the Hay Festival. (en)
