Summary "The Queen's Quair; or, The Six Years' Tragedy" by Maurice Hewlett is a historical novel written in the early 20th century. The book centers on the life and struggles of Mary Stuart, Queen of Scots, as she navigates the complex political landscape of her time, marked by love, betrayal, and the quest for power. The narrative aims to explore her emotional tumult and the circumstances that shaped her tragic fate. At the start of the novel, readers are introduced to Queen Mary, who is currently mourning the death of her husband, King Francis. The opening scenes depict the tension between her and the influential figures surrounding her, particularly the Cardinal of Lorraine, who wishes to control her political destiny. As she grapples with her desires and her precarious position, the allegiances and rivalries among her maids of honor and relatives become apparent. Mary then resolves to take charge of her future, leading her to contemplate marriage to various suitors who can help reclaim her standing. The opening sets the stage for a tale steeped in intrigue and the heavy burdens of royal expectations. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
