“With relentless intelligence Caroline Wray’s Henry wonders how much we will do, and how far we will go, to be loved. Wray is an unsparing observer of the human heart.”Susan Choi, National Book Award Winner

A blazing contemporary reimagining of the six wives of Henry VIII, exploring how you become the main character of your own life when you’ve been cast opposite the anointed star

What does it mean to love — and to leave — a Henry?


New Orleans, 1966. Eighteen-year-old Lina Aragon, reluctant Queen of Mardi Gras, dances with the local golden boy, unknowingly stepping onto the path that will rewrite her future from dutiful Catholic missionary to devoted wife.

New York, 1982. Anne, a headstrong ballerina, has a drink with a married real estate tycoon and embarks on the affair of a lifetime.

England, 2024. In a crumbling castle, reality TV producer Hannah Cleves orchestrates twelve women competing for one man’s affection. But her illicit romance with Katy Howard, a contestant, resurrects memories of her first love and evangelical youth in Mississippi.

Then there's hard-nosed Jane and end-of-life health aide Parker. Together they peel back the veneer of one “great man”. From first love to death bed, these six women orbit each other, their lives irrevocably altered by the gravitational pull of Henry... until they finally break free.

批評家のレビュー

Advance Praise for Henry “With relentless intelligence Caroline Wray’s Henry wonders how much we will do, and how far we will go, to be loved. Whether devout Catholics or rapacious real-estate developers, coldly calculating reality-t.v.-dating-show contestants or classically-trained ballerinas, her characters risk more, lose bigger, and win very different games than the ones they started out playing. Wray is an unsparing observer of the human heart.”Susan Choi, National Book Award Winner and Booker Prize finalist for Flashlight
