James Cook grew up on a farm, but his secret dream was to be a sailor. He wanted to travel "as far as it was possible for man to go." James's three great voyages of discovery took him from Australia to the Arctic, further than anyone else had sailed before. His explorations filled in the last empty space on the map of the world.
Will Shakespeare dreamed of becoming an actor and a playwright. At nineteen he left his home and headed for London, following his dream. He became an actor, part owner of the Globe theater, and the greatest playwright of his time. Four hundred years later, his plays are still hugely popular and performed at theaters all over the world.
Cleopatra, queen of Egypt, dreamed of restoring her country to its former glory. Hers is a story of ambition and struggle, of powerful romance with the Roman giants Julius Caesar and Mark Antony, and ultimately of great tragedy.
In September 1863, Jacob Grimm travels through rural western Germany with his devoted niece, Auguste, who longs to learn at last the truth about her family. They are accompanied by Kummel, their new and enigmatic manservant. As relations between the three reach a crisis point, vivid flashbacks tell of Jacob's traumas and heartbreaks. Old now, Jacob resists Auguste's attempts to make him take stock of his life, but memories that are repressed have a tendency to reappear in other places, and in other guises.Throughout Jacob's travels, he is reminded of the folktales he and his brother Wilhelm collected in their Tales for the Young and Old. Most notable is the feverish fairytale of "Sleeping Beauty," which holds a shattered mirror to a life, a country, and a history. The version recounted here is an enchanting tale that goes beyond the marriage of the Prince and Princess, to reveal the surprising truth behind the evil.In his compelling historical novel, Haydn Middleton re-creates the life story of literature's most famous brothers. It is a history that could almost be a fairytale itself, with its fabulous changes of fortune, tests of duty and honor, arrogant princes, lost loves, and twisted family relationships-all unfolding in a world of dark forests and even darker politics.
Many years later a small boy would say to me, 'What's inside music? If the bit we hear is just the skin of it, the scent, what's the actual whole of music?' There wasn't a great deal I could say to him in reply. Not then. But his question took me back to our expeditionary era, which did feel like a time of transaction as well as transition.
