Synopsis "The Gap of Time. The Winter's Tale, Retold"

Shakespeare’s The Winter’s Tale is reimagined in Jeanette Winterson's page-turning story of a girl banished from home as a baby. How will things turn out this time? A baby girl is abandoned, banished from London to the storm-ravaged American city of New Bohemia. Her father has been driven mad by jealousy, her mother to exile by grief. Seventeen years later, Perdita doesn't know a lot about who she is or where she's come from – but she's about to find out. Jeanette Winterson’s cover version of The Winter’s Tale vibrates with echoes of Shakespeare's original and tells a story of hearts broken and hearts healed, a story of revenge and forgiveness, a story that shows that whatever is lost shall be found. ‘A shining delight of a novel’New York Times 'Clever and beautiful...it soars'Financial TimesSHAKESPEARE RETOLD: Time travel. Zombies. Power-hungry media moguls. This is Shakespeare as you’ve never seen him before: nine iconic plays transformed by the best novelists of our time, with covers by Michael Craig-Martin.
