annarella 's review for:

The Revolt by Clara Dupont-Monod
4.0

Aliénor d’Aquitaine always fascinated me: a strong and powerful woman in an age when women were considered inferior. This books talks about her and her son Richard Lionheart.
I loved the lyrical style of writing, the monologues that help you to understand the characters and the historical time.
It's an engrossing and fascinating read, recommended.
Many thanks to the publisher and Netgalley for this ARC, all opinions are mine
