I hesitated to read this book. It is not my style.
I have to tell you what a joy and pleasure it what to read. The best read in a long time.
I felt like I was really there [a fly on the wall] listening to everything that happened in Juana's life. It was a human life with all the intricacies, mysteries, intrigue, love and hate.
The love she felt for her husband then the betrayal. To steel herself to continue to the end and devote herself to her country. Then the ultimate betrayal by her father. What men did for power in those days and still do today.
All the human drama, secrets, upheavals in Spain's history, is rich and enlightening. Another way to look at the life of a Queen supposedly crazy.
