Katherine Of Aragon
The lives of Henry VIII’s queens make for dramatic stories. This is the story of Katherine - the King’s first wife. Weir draws on new research to tell the story of this indomitable, courageous woman. Was Katherine’s union with Prince Arthur consummated?
What happens when a happy royal marriage is overshadowed by dynastic pressures, doubts and the allure of an ambitious woman? Weir evokes a court peopled by characters such as Cardinal Wolsey, Thomas More, Thomas Cromwell and Henry VIII himself – a young, and athletic Henry, not yet marred by frustration and disappointment. They live in a world of splendour and brutality, dominated by faith and by momentous religious change.
