Voices : the final hours of Joan of Arc  Cover Image Book Book

Voices : the final hours of Joan of Arc / by David Elliott.

Summary:

David Elliott explores how Joan of Arc changed the course of history and remains a figure of fascination centuries after her extraordinary life and death in a fiery, evocative novel-in-verse. In medieval poetic forms, the voices of the people and objects in Joan of Arc's life--her family, the trees, clothes, cows, and candles of her childhood--explore issues such as gender, misogyny, and the peril of speaking truth to power. Before Joan of Arc became a saint, she was a girl inspired. Discover that girl.
