"Poems that document the life of Alexandra Feodorovna, the last tsarina of Imperial Russia. She was the granddaughter of Queen Victoria, a dupe of the notorious mystic Grigory Rasputin and the loving wife of Tsar Nicholas II of Russia and the mother to their five children. The poems give voice to her expectations and fears. The author, with great empathy and emotion, presents the portrait of a woman whose concerns prove startlingly domestic. The author captures Alexandra's devotion to her husband and her children, in particular her anxiety over your young haemophiliac son. But we also see a woman who attempts to bolster her politically inept husband and in the end sees revolution and an end to the monarchy and her family."-- No library descriptions found. |
