Carolly Erickson

Catherine Parr ha soltanto sette anni quando, durante un torneo, il suo destino incrocia per la prima volta quello di Enrico VIII, il re d'Inghilterra.

La «scalata» di Anna Bolena inizia con un periodo trascorso in Francia, come damigella della regina. Al suo rientro in Inghilterra Anna si era trasformata in una splendida dama di corte, prezioso oggetto di scambio per le ambizioni del padre.

Caterina II di Russia, nata principessa Sofia di Anhalt-Zerbst e andata in sposa a soli sedici anni all'erede al trono degli zar, è una delle più straordinarie e controverse figure femminili della storia europea.
