Philippa Gregory studied classical English literature at the University of Edinburgh, worked on radio and television, received her first literary fees, starting to write children's books, but became a truly famous writer only thanks to a series of historical novels, in the center of which is the brilliant court of English kings and queens. A special success fell on the share of the book “Another Boleyn”, transferring the reader to England of the XVI century: after the novel became a world bestseller, a television series was filmed on the BBC based on it, and now a full-fledged film adaptation with Natalie Portman and Scarlett Johanson in the lead roles is being prepared for release in the world.
