| book description |

Shakespeareâ€™s Pericles is transformed by Mark Haddon into a vivid, breathtaking adventure that zooms between antiquity and the present day. A motherless girl grows up in isolated luxury, hidden from the world by her wealthy father. She believes their life together is normal â€“ but as time passes, she has a growing sense that something between them is very wrong. She cannot escape, so she seeks solace in her books. Her favourite tales are those that conjure ancient worlds â€“ of angry gods and heroic mortals, one of whom will some day come to her rescue. Soon, she will forget where the page ends and her mind begins. â€˜Just downright brilliant... a transcendent, transporting experienceâ€™ Observer â€˜A full-throttle blast of storytelling masteryâ€™ Max Porter SHAKESPEARE RETOLD: Time travel. Zombies. Power-hungry media moguls. This is Shakespeare as youâ€™ve never seen him before: nine iconic plays transformed by the best novelists of our time, with covers by Michael Craig-Martin.
