Olivia Hayfield

    Olivia Hayfield reinterpreta racconti storici per l'era moderna, esplorando come figure come Enrico VIII potrebbero navigare nel XXI secolo come magnati dei media, contrapposti a versioni contemporanee delle loro mogli. Il suo lavoro approfondisce le dinamiche tra donne, spesso con uno sguardo acuto e ironico e una sensibilità moderna per il dramma. La prosa di Hayfield è fresca e accattivante, evidenziando temi senza tempo di amore, potere e tradimento in un nuovo contesto. Dona nuova vita al passato esaminando i suoi echi nel nostro presente.

      A rollicking retelling of the story of England's favourite ginger tyrant - King Henry VIII - but with a 21st century twist! Divorced, murdered, died, divorced, suicide, survived... Wealthy, devilishly handsome businessman Harry Rose is head of Rose Corporation, No.18 on the Forbes rich list and recently married to wife number six. But in 2018, with the #MeToo movement changing the way he does business, Harry's perfect, glamorous life has the potential to come crashing to the ground - and Harry is worried man. As Harry's conscience battles to justify his past actions - from popular 1980s young gun to present-day ginger tyrant - he begins to realise how the strong, savvy women he's loved and lost have played hosts to a life story worthy of any tabloid. And that behind the money, sex and power lies the true tale of intrigue, infidelity and danger. Some men, it seems, never learn from their mistakes...
