À propos de cet audio
#1 New York Times bestselling author and “queen of royal fiction” (USA Today) Philippa Gregory returns with a dazzling historical novel of ambition, betrayal, and survival in the court of Henry VIII.
“Gregory skillfully captures the lust for power and wealth that overcomes those who serve a mentally unstable ruler.”--Library Journal
“Richly atmospheric, Gregory’s novel delivers a riveting portrait of Jane and drama of the cunning stakes involved in trying to survive Henry’s reign.”--Booklist
Jane Boleyn watches from the shadows of the Tudor court, where secrets are currency, every choice is dangerous, and even the faintest whisper can seal the fate of queens.
For Jane, survival demands playing every role required of her: a loving wife who conceals her doubts, a devoted sister to Anne Boleyn at the height of her power, and an obedient spy who carefully wields her words. But in a court ruled by ambition and a tyrant’s sword, Jane must rely on her sharp wit and skillful maneuvering to outthink those around her, knowing that one wrong move could cost her everything.
Philippa Gregory masterfully shines a spotlight on the untold story of Jane Boleyn, peeling back the myths to reveal a complex portrait of a woman who dared to survive at any cost. Perfect for fans of thrilling historical drama and readers captivated by the intrigue of the Tudor period, Boleyn Traitor is a must-read.
In both Gregory condems historians and other authors for destroying Jane Boleyn's reputation. She talks at length about how Jane was NOT jealous of her husband's relationship with his sister, that she never testified against them and that she was neither evil nor a voyeur. But she appears to have forgotten her OWN NOVEL, The Boleyn Inheritance, which perpetuated every single stereotype she now condemns. At no point does she take responsibility for her own role in spreading the same information she now refutes. For someone who claims all her writing is based on fact she's sure flip flopped, and it seems like she's hoping we won't notice.
I'm glad I listened to the book, but I'd really like to hear her defend or at least acknowledge her previous work rather than pretend it doesn't exist.
Fantastic book, hypocritical author
