Résumé
It is in the paradoxes and contradictions of the at first sight obvious and straightforward Queen Victoria that St Aubyn finds the key to understanding her. This brilliant portrait is a study of her personality, rather than an account of… her reign. The spotlight is on her family life, her relationships with her ministers and servants, her impact on them and on her subjects, her traits of character and her taste and beliefs. 1991.
