The Courts of Love

The setting feels so vivid and authentic, but I wonder how much was based on real history versus creative license. Did the author have to make tough choices about what to include?

Their personal desires often clashed with societal expectations, which made their struggles feel very real. I’d love to hear if others felt similarly invested.

The idea of love being both a political tool and a personal passion is fascinating. I wonder what prompted the author to explore this particular aspect of medieval life.
