ABOUT THE ORIGINAL BOOK

In "The Queen's Fool" by Philippa Gregory, Hannah Verde, a young Jewish woman fleeing the Spanish Inquisition, arrives at the Tudor court and becomes enmeshed in a world of political and religious intrigue. Tasked with spying on Princess Elizabeth, Hannah navigates dangerous alliances and forbidden knowledge while grappling with her identity and loyalties. As she becomes a confidante to both Queen Mary and Elizabeth, Hannah must make difficult choices that will determine her fate in a world where religious dogma clashes with individual freedom. The story explores themes of persecution, identity, and survival in a tumultuous era.
