Now Tony is in middle age. He's had a career and a single marriage, a calm divorce. He's certainly never tried to hurt anybody. Memory, though, is imperfect.

Audioknihu Anna Falcká napsala autorka: Hana Parkánová Whitton, čte: Milena Steinmasslová. Celková stopáž: 6 hodin, 45 minut. Nešťastně zamilovaná princezna a osamělý král.O dětství Anny Falcké se toho neví mnoho. Známou se stává až sňatkem s římským císařem a českým králem Karlem IV. Bylo jí tehdy dvacet let, byla krásná, nezadaná, byť platonicky zamilovaná, ale hlavně: byla dcerou jednoho z vůdců protikarlovské opozice, jak by se dnes dalo říct. Aby se Karel IV. udržel na trůně, vybral si za ženu, po smrti své první milované ženy Blanky z Valois, právě Annu Falckou. Opravdu se mu tím podařilo hlasy svých nejhlasitějších odpůrců umlčet a ještě rozšířit své území. Ale co Anna? Jaký bude její další, bohužel nedlouhý, život po králově boku?
