Troubadours sang her praises, knights at tournaments shed their blood for her. Kings bowed their heads before the intelligence and beauty of this woman. Her life, burdened with passion, was bright and fierce, like a comet. A breakup with her husband Louis VII, King of France, and a love on the verge of madness for the handsome young Henry of Anjou, the future king of England, a love that eventually turned into hatred and ended in captivity and a monastery. She also gave the world Richard the Lionheart, famous for his exploits and victories. And she unleashed the Hundred Years' War, the longest in Europe. Eleanor of Aquitaine is her very life, the most adventurous of novels, lived like a moment.
