Read Ebook {PDF EPUB} Arrows of Desire by Lynne Connolly Danger Wears White. "Full of political intrigue, steamy romance and plenty of twists and turns. a well crafted story that kept me on the edge of my seat until the very last page. If Lynne Connolly isn't on your auto-buy list, she should be." Sharon Cullen, author of Sebastian's Lady Spy. Hoping to live down her family's connections to the traitorous Jacobite cause, Imogen wants nothing more than a quiet life in the country. When she stumbles upon a wounded man, the white cockade in his coat tells her he's a Jacobite, and a danger to the crown. Yet there's something about him she can't resist . . . In search of a document on behalf of his powerful family, Tony is shot and left for dead. Secreted away to a hidden chamber, he finds himself both a guest and prisoner of a beautiful but mysterious woman. What she wants and who she serves, he cannot know. But what he does understand is the desire burning strongly between them. And that neither of them will be spared until their lust is sated. When the action moves to London, suddenly it's Tony who has to act to save Imogen. Forced to become a lady in waiting to Princess Amelia, she is in peril from the Jacobites, who are convinced she is their salvation. Only the strength of Tony and Imogen's love can save them now. King Lear. As Reginald Foakes has argued, King Lear has probably replaced Hamlet as Shakespeare's most admired play because of its recognition of the broadest range of human relationships. Nevertheless, the play has usually been mutilated in performance. Shakespeare's downbeat ending of the plot with the deaths of Lear and Cordelia (in contrast to his sources) has oppressed so many that it was often played with Nahum Tate's happy ending: with Edgar marrying Cordelia and Lear restored; the Fool eliminated and Arante added as confidant for Cordelia. This version was acted by Thomas Betterton, David Garrick, and Edmund Kean, and preferred by Samuel Johnson. The play was even suppressed for a time when George III was suffering mental impairment. Macready's production of 1838 restored the original text. However, distortions remain customary in stage and film productions. The famous 1962 film production by Peter Brook, with Paul Scofield as Lear and Alan McCowan as the Fool, pessimistically omits Edmund's repentance. In contrast, Kozintsev's film suppresses the attempted suicide of Gloucester and Lear's hint at the Fool's death. Actors and directors tend to see the ranting scenes and supposed madness as the play's core, rather than Lear's acquiring of wry humor in the face of disaster (yet significantly the Folio text cut Lear's most hallucinatory scene: the trial of Goneril and Regan). The contrastingly positive role of Edgar is often under-stressed—but it provided a hopeful conclusion to Kozintsev's film; and Branagh cast himself as Edgar in his staged version.
