Produktbeschreibung
"The Pot of Basil" by way of Bernard Capes is a poignant and haunting quick tale that attracts thought from John Keats' narrative poem of the identical name. Capes reimagines the tragic tale, infusing it together with his very own atmospheric style and subtle Gothic elements. The narrative unfolds in medieval Italy, where the lovely and virtuous Isabella falls in love with Lorenzo, a younger guy of lower social repute. Their mystery love affair is found by her brothers, who disapprove of the suit. In a suit of jealous rage, they murder Lorenzo and bury his frame in a shallow grave. Grief-bothered and heartbroken, Isabella reveals Lorenzo's stays and takes his severed head, putting it in a pot of basil. The tragic aroma of the basil turns into a symbol of her timeless love for Lorenzo. The tale explores issues of forbidden love, betrayal, and the overwhelming strength of grief. Bernard Capes' narrative is characterised by way of its wealthy and evocative prose, creating some surroundings of depression and Gothic romance.
