「傷心欲絕的善良國王一夕之間性格大變,殘酷與怒火使人民逃離。」熱愛故事的Shahrzad沉浸其中,想像自己跳上飛機找到國王,試圖用故事打動國王,使他重拾善良本性。沒想到,白日夢竟化成現實…。A retelling of the Scheherazade story, set in the contemporary world, Shahrzad and the Angry King centers on the scooter-loving, story-loving Shahrzad. One day, Shahrzad sees a boy in the park who she's never seen before. He looks sad, and because she loves stories and therefore always listens to everyone and everything, she asks him to tell her his story. He talks, she listens, and she hears the tale of a country that was peaceful and happy until misery befell its king when his wife died in childbirth. After, the king grows angry and cruel; so much so that the boy must flee with his family. After hearing this story, Shahrzad can't forget it. And so, one day, when she sees a toy airplane in a store, she begins to imagine that she is flying off to the boy's home country, where she confronts the king. Like Scheherazade, she tells the king stories, but this time not to save her own life, but tho

The Winter’s Tale is one of Shakespeare’s “late plays.” It tells the story of a king whose jealousy results in the banishment of his baby daughter and the death of his beautiful wife. His daughter is found and brought up by a shepherd on the Bohemian coast, but through a series of extraordinary events, father and daughter, and eventually mother too, are reunited.In The Gap of Time, Jeanette Winterson’s cover version of The Winter’s Tale, we move from London, a city reeling after the 2008 financial crisis, to a storm-ravaged American city called New Bohemia. Her story is one of childhood friendship, money, status, technology and the elliptical nature of time. Written with energy and wit, this is a story of the consuming power of jealousy on the one hand, and redemption and the enduring love of a lost child on the other.From the Hardcover edition.
