The six wives of Henry VIII have become defined in a popular sense not so much by their lives as by the way these lives ended. But, as Antonia Fraser conclusively proves, they were rich and feisty characters. They may have been victims of Henry's obsession with a male heir, but they displayed considerable strength and intelligence at a time when their sex supposedly possessed little of either. Inevitably there was great rivalry and jealously between them. The story Antonia Fraser tells is romantic and cruel, funny and sad, dramatic and enthralling.

This is a brilliant retelling of the lives of these amazing women. Obviously, they have one thing in common, but each woman is uniquely presented and her story is told. This text was the basis for Six the Musical. Highly recommend for fans of the show, too.

Incredible detail and empathy
