Mehr zum Buch

In the first installment of the Marie Antoinette Trilogy, the charming facade of Marie Antoinette conceals a life filled with isolation and intrigue within the opulent yet confining walls of Versailles. As Madame la Dauphine, she appears to have everything, yet she grapples with the pressure to produce an heir for the French-Bourbon dynasty. Complications arise when her husband, Louis Auguste, the Dauphin, is reluctant to consummate their marriage. Marie Antoinette must navigate the treacherous waters of court politics, seeking the affection of "Papa Roi" while contending with the scathing letters from her mother, Marie Therese, Empress of Austria. Arriving at Versailles as a fourteen-year-old bride, she eagerly anticipates her wedding on May 16, 1770, but within four years, she ascends to the throne of France. This narrative unfolds against the backdrop of early revolutionary signs, raising questions about her role in the growing unrest and whether she could have altered her tragic fate. Experience the vibrant life of the 18th century at Versailles, where social change and discontent simmer beneath the surface. Witness Marie Antoinette's transformation from a naive girl into the Queen of France during a pivotal yet often overlooked chapter of her life. Accompany her as she encounters key figures who will shape her destiny.
