Book: Maid Marian Peacock's retelling of the legend of Robin Hood is as fresh today as it was when he penned it, nearly 200 years ago. Here are all the heroes and villains readers know and love, recast by a keen Victorian wit.
Peacock's retelling of the legend of Robin Hood is as fresh today as it was when he penned it, nearly two hundred years ago. Here are all the heroes and villains we know and love, recast by a keen Victorian wit. The heroes are heroic (and just a little self-serving, though generous) the villains are villainous (and greedy ); and the tale is told as keenly as it can be. Those who haven't read Peacock are in for a treat.
