The kingdom used to be a place of paved roads and well-filled coffers, with joy and the good life all around. But the old king went the way of all flesh years ago, and now the kingdom is derelict, a land ofwickedness and ruin. But a young prince and his sister begin to see what must be done, and-if they can-to restore what has been lost. For a hundred years A Tale Without a Name has been one of Greece’s best-loved stories. This playful, wise fable is enchanting for readers of any age, as meaningful and moving now as when it was first written.
“Delta cleverly adapts the conventions of the European fairy tale with sharp satire worthy of Alexander Pope and Jonathan Swift… very funny… It is a book that members of the current Irish Government should read… this book, after more than a century, continues to speak to all ages.” - Eileen Battersby, Irish Times“Constantly intrigues and excites… Like Animal Farm … thirty or so years later, it’s a political tract in thin but compelling disguise.” – Books for Keeps
