Summary
A fascinating and satisfying visit to England during the
Norman conquest.
From sparse historical
data, Hollick pieces together the story of Emma,
daughter of Richard I of Normandy, just as she has been
contracted to marry King Aethelred of England. We
follow her life as a young girl matched with an
ineffectual and quick tempered husband as she slowly
comes into herself. As she makes friends and grows
confident, we see the beginnings of a loyal and
charismatic leader.
