Telling Tales : "Paradise Illustrated" AND "Faust Book" Paperback
by D. J. Enright
Part of the Oxford Poets S. series
Paperback
Description
This volume brings D.J. Enright's renowned sequences together in one book. "Paradise Illustrated" is a contemporary telling of Milton's Adam and Eve and their fall from grace in Paradise, and "A Faust Book" is also a retelling of a perenially relevant tale of mankind's arrogance and ambition.
Both sequences are comical, witty, outrageous, and sad.
They stem both from D.J. Enright's knowledge of the work of his great predecessors - Milton, Goethe, and Marlowe - and from his own understanding of life: wry and sympathetic.
He has written a new foreword, introducing the sequences for this edition.
This book is intended for writers, poetry readers, sixth-form and college English students.
