What is it about King Henry VIII of England that continues to ignite humanity's imagination even centuries after his death?

In the fictional autobiography I, Henry VIII, American author Margaret George masterfully tells the twisted life story of the English king — a rebellious and clever boy originally destined for the clergy, who inherited the throne at the age of 18 and went on to found the Anglican Church. The supposed secret diary written by Henry VIII in his later years is interwoven with the witty commentary of Will Somers, the court jester who knows the king better than anyone. Through these entries, the tragic figure of a conflicted man emerges, torn between forces of sin and sanctity until his dying day, while the sharp-eyed jester charmingly casts doubt on his master’s own self-perceptions.
