The Rage in Albion (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781491801062)

Carrying on from where she left of with 'The Muse', Cecelia Peters' eagerly awaited collection 'The Rage in Albion' ventures once more into the real, taking readers to another place with splendid fantasy, stark observations and uncompromising reality. With the title poem 'The Rage in Albion' Peters pens eloquently her observations of the curious and enigmatic "homeless man under the bridge", whose placards have become his voice, so far read in over 20 countries, this is Peters' most famous rhyme to date. Thrillingly dark and evocative, she uplifts the reader giving a feeling of awe and enchantment, then gradually back down to reality with graceful melancholy. Peters introduces new characters to intrigue, such as the well publicised, 'The Woman Who Cried', and a tribute to Paul Sweeney, the London Hackney Carriage Driver, 'The Driving Seat of Knowledge', together with the un-noticing 'Janet, ' the much maligned 'Lizzie' and the inimitable 'Cool Breeze'. Similarly, with 'The Guide' Peters takes readers to her most secret place. Part story and part rhyme 'The Guide' shows a side of the Poet rarely seen, guiding you through each stage of her recurring dream, and spiritual encounter. Enchanting and thought provoking, 'The Rage in Albion' combines the real with the surreal. Once again a fitting tribute to the 'Bardess of Langley' whose fearless approach has become her trademark.
