THE LOST QUEEN The Life & Tragedy of the Prince Regent's Daughter

Narrator Anne Flosnik delivers an appealing portrait of Princess Charlotte of Wales, 1796-1817--the only child of George IV and Caroline of Brunswick, who hated each other. This fact gives Flosnik much fodder to dramatize since a great deal of Charlotte's life is gleaned from her letters. Flosnik delivers these letters with intuitive skill, revealing a child who dearly wanted her parents' attention. Employing various accents--Northern England, Irish, and the King's English--Flosnik helps listeners understand the conflict over Charlotte that raged between her parents. Audiences will enjoy Flosnik's fine delivery of the history of this little known princess, who died in childbirth. Had she lived, she would have preceded Victoria to the English throne.
