Dramatization
Beyond the forests, beyond the valleys, beyond the mountains… there’s another world.
From the Red Book of Hergest, these are the tales of the Mabinogi. Tales of romance, tragedy, comedy and fantasy, of a mythical pre-Saxon era of medieval Wales: a land of magic, of dragons, fairies and giants..
The tales of the Mabinogi are tales of romance, tragedy, comedy and fantasy and together they form the earliest prose stories of Britain.
Pryderi, Prince of Dyfed, heads to Harlech in North Wales, to win the hand of Princess Branwen of Gwynedd. But first he must impress her giant of a brother, King Bran the Blessed.
Award-winning writer Lucy Catherine (The Master and Margherita, Being Human, Vanity Fair) gives these stories a modern flavour while remaining true to the vivid magic of Celtic mythology.
