内容简介 In Henry, King of France, the sequel to Young Henry of Navarre, the compelling epic of Henry IV's reign over France is followed to its tragic destiny. The novel recounts two decades of chaos and war that led to the triumphant founding of the French Republic and culminated in the King's assassination in 1589.
作者简介 Heinrich Mann (1871-1950), the brother of Thomas Mann, was a well-known German novelist and social critic of authoritarian Germany under Wilhelm II. In addition to the two Henry novels, he is also the author of Man of Straw and Small Town Tyrant (the basis of the film The Blue Angel).
媒体推荐 Review
"The story moves swiftly, from scene to scene, almost like a play . . . The philosophy of the author, a philosophy touched by humor, shines transiently through the texture of the closely woven style." (Saturday Review)
