Summary
In 1953, at an isolated boys' school in the Yorkshire moors, is a young teacher, Alexander Wedderburn, whose imagination had been captured by the Queen Elizabeth of Shakespeare and Spenser and who has written an historical verse play about her. Now, suddenly, his play has been taken up by a wealthy patron of the arts who envisions its production on the most magnificent scale, for it is to be the climax of a local festival honoring the new Queen Elizabeth.
The novel holds us in suspense as it carries us to the great event of the play itself—in its Midsummer-Night's atmosphere of dream, of magic, of transforming revelry—that will alter forever the course of all the characters' lives.
