Burning Bright 英文原版

Burning Bright follows the Kellaway family as they leave behind
tragedy in rural Dorset and come to late 18th-century London. As
they move in next door to the radical painter/poet William Blake,
and take up work for a near-by circus impresario, the youngest
family member gets to know a girl his age. Embodying opposite
characteristics-Maggie Butterfield is a dark-haired, streetwise
extrovert, Jem Kellaway a quiet blond introvert-the children form a
strong bond while getting to know their unusual neighbor and his
wife.

Set against the backdrop of a city nervous of the revolution gone
sour across the Channel in France, Burning Bright explores the
states of innocence and experience just as Blake takes on similar
themes in his best-known poems, Songs of Innocence and of
Experience.
