About the book: 1994 / "Confession of a Queen" is a continuation of Victoria Holt's novel "Waiting for Happiness." In it, the writer seems to reproduce the confessional diary of the French queen Marie Antoinette, in which the queen, while awaiting execution, recalls her childhood and youth in Austria, tells the story of her marriage, her arrival in France, describes palace intrigues, and repents of her mistakes and delusions. In this novel, Marie Antoinette talks about her great love, the French Revolution, and the attempts of the royal family to escape from a country engulfed in terror. The tragic and touching story of the unfortunate queen will certainly interest the reader.
