It might be that Madame de Lafayette's novel of passion is one of the greatest in the genre. It is closer to the declamatory theatre of Racine than to anything else in the robust tradition of the English novels of Fielding or Smollett or Dickens. It has generated in John Watson a response in iambics, which seem in English the only way this expressive grandeur can be attempted. Watson has in the past been drawn similarly to the ancient texts of Daphnis and Chloe and Tristan, where passion is also the currency. Princess de Clèves may well be his most sustained success.

Tharkold ist tatsächlich die Hölle auf Erden. Vor langer Zeit haben die Dämonen die Menschen in ihrem Cosm in einem welterschütternden Krieg zerschmettert, der beide Zivilisationen im Ruin zurückgelassen hat. Jetzt haben die Dämonen, die durch okkulte Technologie gestärkt wurden und verzweifelt nach neuen Realitäten suchen, die sie plündern können, ihre gierigen Augen auf die Zentralerde gerichtet. Tharkold hat Russland invasiert, doch Präsident Alexander "der Wolf" Wolkow war auf die Invasion vorbereitet. Nach einem verheerenden Atomschlag machte sich eine unheilige Pattsituation in einem Reich breit, das von Wahnsinn, Strahlung und dämonischen Scheusalen beherrscht wurde. Doch durch den Tod von High Lord Kranod wurde der Status quo erschüttert. Kranods Leibeigene, der Wolf und ein intriganter Dämon mit mysteriösen Verbindungen zum Hageren Mann versuchen die Herrschaft im Reich an sich zu reißen. Ihr spielt die Helden in diesem grimmen, blutgetränkten Reich. Ihr seid Freiheitskämpfer, Kriminelle, Renegaten, Psioniker oder vielleicht sogar der seltene Dämonen, die versuchen, ihre bösen Ursprünge hinter sich zu lassen und diese verheerte Landschaft zum Besseren zu verändern.

Many of Schubert's six hundred songs were composed quickly, and often in the midst of of a gathering of friends loudly revelling or performing other music. Sometimes that remarkable facility would be exercised while walking in company through the woods round Vienna. John Watson has composed a sequence of scenes from this prodigious working life - sometimes in Schubert's own voice, sometimes in the voices of critics or friends. Here are glimpses - forming a song cycle, as it were - depicting Schubert at work or between songs, until the final fortnight's struggle when he leaves them behind.

The story of Tristan is well known in the Western tradition of Romance. Few have not heard of Wagner's opera and the love elixir which Tristan and Iseut drink by accident. The story is already well established in the early medieval period, where there are several competing manuscripts, most of them incomplete for various reasons. John Watson has revisited these medieval origins and achieved a synthesis, a complete Tristan. Here are the sea voyages, the ill-fated love potion, the black or white sail hoisted as a signal. And here, re-imagining the whole, Watson has made a fitting companion piece to his earlier The Tale of Gawain (GinninderraPress).
