Sophie Perinot

    Sophie Perinot écrit des romans historiques qui explorent la politique complexe des cours royales et les époques charnières, de la France et l'Angleterre du XIIIe siècle à la tumultueuse cour des Valois du XVIe siècle en France. Ses récits mettent en avant des protagonistes féminines captivantes, explorant leurs relations complexes, leurs rivalités et leur quête d'autonomie au sein de sociétés patriarcales. S'inspirant de la littérature classique et de figures historiques telles que Dumas, Perinot adopte un style à la fois immersif et sans concession, présentant souvent l'histoire sous un angle résolument féminin. Sa formation en histoire et en droit confère une profondeur et une authenticité distinctes à ses récits captivants.

      Medicis Daughter
    • Patient, perfect, and used to being first, Marguerite becomes Queen of France. But Louis IX is a religious zealot who denies himself the love and companionship his wife craves. Can she borrow enough of her sister's boldness to grasp her chance for happiness in a forbidden love? Passionate, strong-willed, and stubborn, Eleanor becomes Queen of England. Henry III is a good man, but not a good king. Can Eleanor stop competing with her sister and value what she has, or will she let it slip away? The Sister Queens is historical fiction at its most compelling, and is an unforgettable first novel.
