Marie Antoinette Affair
Question: favorite books on marie antoinette? ?
im looking to get a few good books on her, and i was wondering some other peoples favorites? i really like the books based on fact more than fiction and possibly even a good book about her affair with count fergusen (however u spell his name).
so yeah, if you could help out, that would be fabulous.
except the book by antoinia frasier or how ever you spell her name. im sure its a good book, but im looking for something a bit more.
Answer: antonia fraser’s book is good but it is a very sympathetic portrait of antoinette. i didn’t have a problem with that because it is a fresh perspective of her. it does cover the affair with fergusen (fraser believes that he genuinely loved her) it is an interesting book. sofia coppola based her movie marie antoinette on this book
it is an award winning biography (based on fact and research) what more do you want?
