Tragične kraljice

Tragične kraljice

Juliette Benzoni

The book is a collection of biographical stories, focused on the fates of 18 historical queens and empresses who are marked by beauty, ambition, love and tragic ends.

This is not her first work (originally published in 1962 as a collection of short stories in the magazine Confidences), but it was reprinted or expanded in 1981, with an emphasis on the romantic reconstruction of history through a female perspective. Benzoni, known for series such as Katarina or Mariana, uses her talent for vivid descriptions of court intrigue, love triangles and political assassinations here, transforming dry facts into dramatic stories. The book is popular among fans of the historical novel, as it combines documentary accuracy with emotional depth, highlighting how the throne often destroys women's personal happiness.
