Nothing preordained Elisabeth of Wittelsbach, known as “Sissi”, to become Empress of Austria at the age of seventeen. It was, in fact, despite herself that the young Bavarian duchess, who had always been somewhat rebellious and untamed, was courted by the Emperor of Austria, one of Europe’s most powerful men, whom she finally accepted to marry. Attempting by all means to get away from the Imperial Court, this Hungarian queen of legendary beauty will carry the weight of the Crown of the Habsburgs throughout her adult life. Sissi does not adapt well to the strict etiquette of the imperial life, and the several moments she spends away from her husband are difficult. A romantic liaison with an enemy count will serve as a rare source of comfort for the empress. An unhappy sovereign, Sissi is nevertheless idolized by her people and becomes the main unifying actor of the Austro-Hungarian Empire. Alone at the head of a kingdom and hounded by her admirers, she will die a tragic death at the hands of a fanatic.

This book, I am sad to say, was a mess. There were plenty of grammatical errors, which I could have overlooked had the writing been acceptable. It was more like a book report that a high school student would write. I could not understand if it was historical fiction or a biography, the story seemed to switch back and forth. I really wanted to like this book, as I love the subject, but I got more out of reading her biography on Wikepedia. Does anyone know of any good books on Sissi?
2 of 2 people found the following review helpful. Sweet, but... By Sandra Thompson This is definitely a fictionalized version of history. If you like the sweet movies of the same name from the 1950s, then this is for you, but it is definitely not about the real, very formal Austro-Hungarian royal court, one of the most rigid royal courts in Europe.
1 of 1 people found the following review helpful. Oops! By Marge Holt While I did enjoy the wholesome, tactical approach that the writer took, and the obvious research into accuracy efforts, to an English major, there were far too many grammatical errors which soon detracted from the substance. It became irritating then annoying. Like the proverbial busman on holiday, seeing careless driving ruins the family trip for him or her, the bumping into errors in syntax, plural vs singular verbs, and punctuation, made me put it down. Also, the use of slang phrases which are common to our time, was NEVER in use during these years nor by people in high society strata. It was as if the main characters were transported to the "jazz hipster age of gee whiz". Aw, come on! The upper crust of Europe and England didn't use the slang form of speech. Sorry, but I don't have patience to overlook more than a few.
