Product Description
When the subject of Henry VIII's many marital adventures is discussed, Henry's wives are spoken of as one entity, with no existence outside their lives with Henry. In Dixie Atkins' four volume novel, 'A Golden Sorrow', she sets out to give the reader a comprehensive account of each Queen, from birth to death, based on meticulous research. Each wife tells her own story: Katherine of Aragon, the Spanish princess; Anne Boleyn, brought up at the French court; Jane Seymour, living in the shadow of her ambitious brothers; Anne of Cleves, who became Henry's 'honorary sister'; Katherine Howard, the promiscuous teenager; Katherine Parr, who sacrificed happiness to care for an ailing king. All paid dearly for wearing 'A Golden Sorrow'.
