Tajni dnevnik Anne Boleyn

Tajni dnevnik Anne Boleyn

Robin Maxwell

The life and death of Henry VIII's second wife.

When the young Queen of England Elizabeth I gets her hands on the secret diary of Anne Boleyn, the second of her father Henry VIII's six wives, she discovers a lot about the much-maligned mother she never met. And having learned the truth about her promiscuous, despotic father Henry VIII., she swears that she will never surrender to any man. But this vow does not prevent Elizabeth from maintaining a fiery love affair with riding instructor Robin Dudley - described with almost shocking honesty - as well as Anne's secret meetings with the very persistent and lustful Henry. Combining a historian's attention to data accuracy with a novelist's skillful storytelling, Robin Maxwell convincingly interweaves descriptions of life at court and portraits of real people into a fierce and exciting story. The result is a masterpiece of historical fiction, so prophetic of our time that Maxwell seems to have plucked it from the headlines of today's newspapers. In this suspenseful reconstruction of the tragic life and death of Anne Boleyn, Robin Maxwell offers a perfect version of a dissolute and playful time full of lust, betrayal, love and murder.
