Summary
Thoughts about an eighteenth-century Korean crown princess consume middle-aged Oxford academic Babs Halliwell after she receives anonymously and reads the princess's memoir. When Babs visits Seoul, uncanny similarities between herself and the historical figure force her to re-examine her life. Set in eighteenth-century Korea and the present day, The Red Queen is about love, personal and public history, and what it means to be remembered. Some descriptions of sex and some violence. c2004
