The Other Boleyn Girl offers Tudor intrigue, romance
and death
|
|
Feel the stab of betrayal, the ache of heartache
and crumbling sensation of uncertainty and fear. When an author
makes you both see and sense with a character’s own eyes and
heart, you know she’s got you. Philippa Gregory delivers a potent
dose of history spiked with fiction in The Other Boleyn Girl.
Set in the grandeur of the England court during
the reign of King Henry VIII, the story unfolds before the eyes of
the young Mary Boleyn. Witnessing the beheading of his uncle the
Duke of Buckingham, Earl Stafford, the heroine was made to
understand that life in court simply means to please the king and
always win his favor.

Self-control
|
|
I cannot emphasize enough the importance of self-control when it
concerns love and marriage. If you look carefully at failed
marriages and dying love, you will undoubtedly see what an important
part the loss of self-control played in the collapse of love.
