À propos de cet audio
She wore black for forty years. And ruled a world in mourning. Queen Victoria didn’t just wear the crown — she became it. Through grief, silence, and sheer symbolic power, she turned herself into the emotional architecture of an empire that never stopped expanding. While others fought, conquered, and colonized, she sat — cloaked in black — and let the myth do the work. Victoria: The Widow Who Ruled the World is not a sentimental biography. It’s a sharp, elegant, psychological autopsy of a queen who ruled from the shadows — and a world that learned to repress its feelings just to match her mood. From the suffocating Kensington System to the global sprawl of empire, from Indian courtiers to mourning rituals, from family drama to the branding of monarchy — this book tracks how one grieving woman became the face of a century.
