About The Boston Globe: A Tudor and a Tortoise, Both in Fine Voice
The Boston Globe: A Tudor and a Tortoise, Both in Fine Voice- In giving narrative voice to her subjects Weir brings us into emotional contact with them in a way that an unadorned historical account does not. We feel, rather than merely acknowledge, that these crimes and machinations were the actual doings of real individuals and that the hard life those callous schemers created for Jane in particular was really lived and brutally ended. By Katherine A. Powers.
