Anne of Cleves?

[Divia]

Are there any books about Anne after her marriage to Henry? I checked out a wiki article on her and she seemed to be pretty active in different things.

I enjoyed Mavis Cheek's novel, "Amenable Women". It's a past/present story, quite well done.

There's a nonfiction book by Retha Warnicke called, The Marrying of Anne of Cleves:

Elizabeth Norton has one soon-to-be-published about her also, aptly entitled Anne of Cleves. I can't say, though, that I was very impressed by Norton's She-Wolves book. Some really weird errors in the chapter on Isabella of France.

Oh, and for HF, there's Margaret Campbell Barnes' My Lady of Cleves. It's a bit fanciful, but a fun read.

My Lady of Cleeves, by Margaret Campbell Barnes, is excellent. There's a review on the forum by AmyB here (http://www.historicalfictiononline.com/forums/showthread.php?t=398).

Excellent. Thank you ladies. :)

There is also another NF book by Mary Saaler Ann of Cleves: Fourth Wife of Henry VIII. Idon't have this one myself.

Annis has contributed a review of Amenable Women at HistoricalNovels.info (http://www.historicalnovels.info/Amenable-Women.html). It sounds like a good read for anyone interested in the Tudor era who's gotten a bit tired of the tragic Anne Boleyns and Katherine Howards and is looking for something a bit more humorous and upbeat. I've rather admired Anne of Cleves since I saw the segment on her in the TV series "The Six Wives of Henry VIII."
