What If Anne Boleyn Sewed Her Head Back On?
About this episode
Rebecca Lehmann discusses her book 'The Beheading Game', which imagines Anne Boleyn reattaching her head post-execution and explores her life and relationships in Tudor England.
Rebecca Lehmann's new book The Beheading Game begins with Anne Boleyn, post-execution, waking up and reattaching her head. From there, this book explores life in Tudor era England, Anne Boleyn's quest for revenge (and to reunite with her daughter), and so much more. Rebecca joins us this week to talk about how she got the idea for this book, her research process, and what she really thinks about Anne Boleyn and Henry VIII's relationship.
