Download Henry VIII: Arkangel Shakespeare AudioBook Free
King Henry is committed to Katherine of Aragon, but he has been smitten by the charms of the queen's maid of honor, Anne Bullen, and is lured to divorce his dignified and noble wife. In the mean time, the lords of Great britain resent the impact of Henry's respected advisor, Cardinal Wolsey, who's gradually drawing electricity into his own hands. As Katherine and Wolsey put up with their tragic comes, new figures go up to load their places, but they, too, will be brought low by the inexorable sweep of energy and fortune. This colorful background play, possibly written in collaboration with John Fletcher, originates from the very end of Shakespeare's remarkable career. Paul Jesson takes on Henry VIII, and Jane Lapotaire takes on Queen Katherine. Timothy Western world is Cardinal Wolsey.
