2nd: Anna Of Byzantium

This is a book that I just finished at this time. This entry is from the page 95 paragraph 2.

"Suffering?" my grandmother laughed. "You call that suffering? Eating a luxurious banquet, wearing silk robes, and having people laugh because she dissapears with her betrothed? If she wants to know what suffering is, she should trying living in a tent with no servants, the way I did when I was planning for Alexius' glorious reentry to the throne.

My return:

I believe that this paragraph is a paragraph showing how corrupt this, "grandmother" truly is. It gives just a taste of the grandmothers intentions and cruelty. This book shows us how to elemently how to discover corrupt people and their intentions. The entire mental chess idea that is brought forth in this book, it has inspired me to learn how to convince those that need convincing in a good manner.

I haven't read Anna of Byzantium. You gave me enough of a taste of it to make me interested in reading it someday. Thanks!
