Our Little Lady follows the experiences of a nursery-maid at the Royal Palace. Through her perspective, the story reveals the challenges of life in the Middle Ages, particularly the complexities of caring for a royal princess who is deaf and mute. The narrative paints a vivid picture of 13th-century Lincoln, from the Cathedral to the everyday struggles of the people, offering a glimpse into the societal norms and harsh realities of the time. The nursery-maid reflects on her role in tending to the princess, whose inability to pray is a source of sorrow, despite her own unique ways of communicating. The story explores the burden of social rank, faith, and personal emotions, contrasting royal luxury with the difficulties of the era. The early chapters set the stage for deeper connections and exploration of how the characters navigate their lives amid the strictures of their society. Through this, readers are introduced to a world of both privilege and hardship, where personal struggles and royal duties intertwine in a complex historical context.
