The Fate of Ophelia (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798266746558)

A girl refuses to let men finish her story.

Ophelia is not an ornament to a prince's tragedy. She claims the story the court tried to control.
She learns a quiet language of herbs, writes what cannot be written, and names what others prefer to keep quiet.
From kitchens and corridors to the riverbank and beyond, her voice follows the living - through love, grief, and the price of power.

Told in the intimate, commanding voice of Ophelia, this novel slips behind intricate tapestries and ceremonious delicacies to the rooms where choices are actually made.
A brother who gathers blinding wrath from the remnants of grief.
A queen who wields beauty like a shield.
A prince who carelessly plays until he gets played.
A river that remembers and a court that forgets.

Lush yet precise, fierce yet tender, this is a story about the politics of betrayal and the cost of compassion; about how women keep each other alive with small, ordinary courage; about love that fails and love that repairs; and about claiming the last word when the world prefers a wordless ending.

This reimagining of a classic tragedy takes a girl that was spoken for, and lets her speak.
Open the book. Let her tell you herself.
