Description
The Autobiography of Henry VIII With Notes by His Fool, Will Somers : a Novel by Margaret George This is the story of England's most famous and notorious king, Henry VIII. His life and reign were marked by contradictions: he was a charismatic lover, a scholar, a hunter, and a ruthless leader. Henry's story is one of astonishing, poignant, and outlandish events, as he navigated the complexities of power and his own desires. From his early years as a young king to his monumental decision to split from Rome, Henry's character is revealed in all its complexity. This novel offers a vivid portrait of Henry VIII and Tudor England, with a unique perspective that combines magnificent storytelling with an extraordinary grasp of the pleasures and perils of power.
