"Queen Victoria" is a biography of the famous monarch written by Lytton Strachey, a prominent British writer and critic. Published in 1921, the book provides a unique and controversial perspective on Queen Victoria, who had been widely revered as a symbol of British values and imperialism. Strachey portrays Victoria as a complex and flawed individual, whose personal life and political decisions were shaped by her upbringing, her relationships with her family and advisors, and the social and cultural norms of her time. The book delves into Victoria's early life, her ascension to the throne, her marriage to Prince Albert, her relationship with her children, and her reign as Queen during a period of significant political and social change in Britain. Strachey's unconventional approach to biography, which emphasizes psychological insight and literary style over factual accuracy, was influential in shaping the modern genre of creative nonfiction.
