"Learwife" tells the story of a woman once married to King Lear, now exiled to a nunnery and written out of history. As she grapples with grief, rage, and questions about her past, she seeks answers and a possible path to peace while navigating her life among women and confronting a tragic history. The novel explores themes of loss, renewal, and the lingering impact of history on the present.
