“I know too much. It's as if I've gone behind the scenes of a masque and seen the machinery that makes the thunder and the wheels that turn to make the waves of the sea. I don't delight in the spectacle now that I have to put my weight on the wheels. I'm part of the machine, not the audience”

Tudor court feels like a place where performance has replaced authenticity and truth. Everyone knows what they’re expected to say, how to flatter the King and what those in power want to hear and what everyone needs to pretend in order to belong or survive.
And I’m thinking I’m not sure we have changed all that much?

I expected Boleyn Traitor to give me Tudor history! but I wasn’t expecting quite this much spying, gossip, intrigue and political machination. I’m completely hooked. Who knew that survival at Henry VIII’s court meant learning not only what you can and cannot say, but sometimes what you cannot even allow yourself to question
