Content

Voltaire noemde het ‘het Assepoesterverhaal van de achttiende eeuw’: hoe Marta Skowronska, een straatarme boerendochter, werd uitgehuwelijkt aan een Zweedse dragonder, door een bende Russische soldaten werd verkracht, werd verkocht als seksslavin en terechtkwam bij het Russische Hof. Daar werd ze al spoedig ontdekt door tsaar Peter de Grote, met wie ze trouwde en twaalf kinderen kreeg, van wie er slechts twee volwassen zouden worden.
Peters keizerin is het buitengewone verhaal van deze Litouwse vrouw, die haar leven lang niet kon lezen maar het wel schopte tot keizerin Catharina Ivan Rusland. Kristina Sabaliauskaite laat Catharina in deze schitterende historische roman zelf haar levensverhaal vertellen, vanaf haar sterfbed.
Peters keizerin is een aangrijpende roman over een onmogelijk huwelijk dat tegelijk een culturele kloof tussen Oost en West laat zien, over de permanente perikelen binnen het Russische Rijk, over de stichting van de stad Sint-Petersburg en over de eenzame strijd die Catharina als vrouw haar leven lang moest voeren om te worden wie ze was.

Kristina Sabaliauskaitè studeerde kunstgeschiedenis. Ze woont in Londen, waar ze jarenlang correspondent en columnist was. Peters keizerin is de bestverkochte roman in Litouwen aller tijden: er werden 80.000 exemplaren van verkocht, op een totale bevolking van 2,8 miljoen.

‘Kristina  Sabaliauskaitè behoort tot de krachtigste en meest expressieve stemmen van de historische roman in Europa.’
Olga Tokarczuk

Book condition
An important factor of a second-hand book is the condition of the book. The buyer may not be surprised. Always mention damages or defects. We use a system with 3 stars:
The book is acceptable: you have used it to study and made notes and markings – but everything is still readable. The cover and pages are in good condition.
The book still looks good: there are a few notes in it and you marked it. There are hardly any signs of use on the cover and pages.
The book is (almost) new: you have not written or marked in it. There are no signs of use on the cover and pages.
