The story is set in medieval Europe and revolves around the life of a young woman named Isabella, who becomes the wife of the king. Isabella is a beautiful and intelligent woman who catches the eye of the king, but she is also a woman with a past, which the king knows nothing about.As Isabella adjusts to her new life as the queen, she finds herself caught up in the complex politics of the court. She must navigate the treacherous waters of court intrigue and deal with the jealousy and scheming of the other women in the king’s life. Meanwhile, she struggles with her own feelings for the king, who is both her husband and her ruler.The King’s Wife is a gripping tale of love, power, and betrayal set against the backdrop of medieval Europe. It explores the complexities of relationships, the challenges of political power, and the price of ambition. With vivid descriptions and a richly drawn cast of characters, Helene Vacaresco brings to life a fascinating era in European history and creates a compelling story of a woman who must navigate the dangerous world of the royal court to secure her place as the queen.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
