The Love of a Nightingale
by Timberlake Wertenbaker

The war is over, Tereus must choose a bride, choose between duty and desire. But is the passion of love justification for despicable acts? Timberlake Wertenbaker's iridescent retelling of a violent Greek myth crackles with lyrical language and vivid action, questioning love, hate, sex and everything in between.
