In Diana, Charles, & the Queen, National Book Award finalist William Heyen captures the successes and shortcomings of the British royal family. His poetic vision allows us to see the humanity of each character: a young Elizabeth contemplating love while crying into a cloth woven by Gandhi, a gallant Prince Charles courts a wide-eyed Diana with anecdotes of his travels, and gradually, a frustrated Diana as as her marriage crumbles in its later years.
Completed before the tragic death of Princess Diana in 1997, this book is a multi-leveled literary work, stunning in its depth, and far removed from what has previously been offered on the subject of the royal family.
