An absolute delight of a debut novel by William Kuhn—author of Reading Jackie: Her Autobiography in Books—Mrs Queen Takes the Train wittily imagines the kerfuffle that transpires when a bored Queen Elizabeth strolls out of the palace in search of a little fun, leaving behind a desperate team of courtiers who must find the missing Windsor before a national scandal erupts. Reminiscent of Alan Bennett’s The Uncommon Reader, this lively, wonderfully inventive romp takes readers into the mind of the grand matriarch of Britain’s Royal Family, bringing us an endearing runaway Queen Elizabeth on the town—and leading us behind the Buckingham Palace walls and into the upstairs/downstairs spaces of England’s monarchy.

My new biography of Lord Byron tells the story of a man famous as a lover 200 years ago. But he fascinated me because of the way he performed miracles of self-healing and rebirth through his writing. SWIMMING WITH LORD BYRON shows how Byron the lover and Byron the writer were also combined, surprisingly, with Byron the swimmer. JACKIE STORIES describes my interviews with Jacqueline Onassis's friends. I went to their houses. I noticed their clothes. I listened to their views on the woman they knew well. READING JACKIE is a look at Jackie's private library. She revealed herself in ways she probably didn't intend to during her lifelong romance with books. Two cheerful fictions about life inside the Royal Household are MRS QUEEN TAKES THE TRAIN and PRINCE HARRY BOY TO MAN.
