{"product_id":"9781780121611","title":"The Lady Penelope","description":"Penelope Devereux was the brightest star who ever shone in the court of Queen Elizabeth I in sixteenth-century England. She was the most beautiful woman of her generation and muse to countless poets and musicians, yet her story ended in tragedy: she died in disgrace on 7th July 1607, a widow, outcast from court, and stripped of all her titles. Her life touched on every great event of the age – the execution of Mary Queen of Scots, the defeat of the Spanish Armada, the arrival of King James and the Gunpowder Plot – and she knew many of the celebrated artistic figures of the day including William Shakespeare. The Lady Penelope is a dramatic, visual, emotional and ultimately tragic story set against the character of Queen Elizabeth I and the staged pageantry of her Court, and will have immediate appeal to lovers of historical biographies.","brand":"Carlton Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47135369199856,"sku":"9781780121611","price":6.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781780121611_p0.jpg?v=1763711343","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781780121611","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
