M. Forster confessed he would have married her, if only she had been a boy.Queen Elizabeth II was famous for longer than anyone who has ever lived. When people spoke of her, they spoke of themselves; when they dreamed of her, they dreamed of themselves. She mirrored their hopes and anxieties. To the optimist, she seemed an optimist; to the pessimist, a pessimist; to the awestruck, charismatic; and to the cynical, humdrum. Though by nature reserved and unassuming, her presence in a room could make presidents, tycoons, and rock stars turn back into the nervous children they once were. For close to a century, she inhabited the psyche of the world.Combining biography, essay, cultural history, dream diary, travelog, and satire, Craig Brown-the bestselling and award-winning author of Ninety-Nine Glimpses of Princess Margaret and Hello Goodbye Hello-presents a kaleidoscopic portrait of this most public yet most private of sovereigns in Q: A Voyage Around the Queen.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mia Karts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52180133249312,"sku":"NEW1250397650","price":22.03,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0980\/7426\/3840\/files\/81FV32f-RhL.jpg?v=1786538104","url":"https:\/\/miakarts.com\/products\/q-a-voyage-around-the-queen-1250397650","provider":"Miakarts Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
