Description
Three Memoirs in One Book ***** The Royal Memoirs of George of Poděbrady is a historical novel that draws on historical data and events while also operating in the realm of fiction. George of Poděbrady never wrote any memoirs. However, it is quite possible that if he had, they would have looked just like this. He would reflect on the pivotal moments of his extraordinary life, the famous Battle of Lipany, or the siege of the castle of Sion, reminiscing about both happy and tragic moments in his private life, describing his first uncertain steps in politics and his journey to the royal crown. ***** In the novel by Josef Bernard Prokop, George's narrative is further complemented by Queen Johana and the royal jester, Sir Jan of Pálče, known as Pálček. The result is a captivating interpretation of history and a vivid portrayal of an extraordinary ruler, about whom we generally only know that he is called the 'Hussite King.'
