La Reine Margot Paperback Book
Dear sister! said Charles IX, there is blood on your sleeve! And what consequence is that, Sire, said Marguerite, if I have a smile upon my lips? Saint Bartholomews Day 1572. Paris is awash with the blood of Huguenots slaughtered by order of Charles IX. Or perhaps of Catherine de Medicis, one of historys great monsters? Or the ambitious Duke de Guise? Or the Duke dAnjou, soon to be the reluctant King of Poland? The answer will be found in the secret passageways of the Louvre and the torture chamber of the fortress of Vincennes. It takes an iron nerve and a cool head to survive. Young Henry of Navarre has both in abundance, but he has more he has his Queen, the beautiful, cultured Margot. Staking all on love and losing, she remains defiant in defeat.

Dumas fills his canvas with a gallery of unforgettable characters, unremitting action and the engaging generosity of spirit which has made him one of the worlds greatest and bestloved storytellers. This revised edition of the classic translation of 1846 is richly annotated. An introduction sets Dumas and his work in their literary, historical and cultural context.

Each affordable volume reflects Oxfords commitment to scholarship, providing the most...
