The Rime of the Ancient Mariner

Work:: The Rime of the Ancient Mariner (S1212785592)

Samuel Taylor Coleridge's epic poem of supernatural terrors. A doomed ship sails through ice fields and sudden storms, circled high above by a solitary albatross. The eagle eyed mariner below narrows his gaze, fixes his target and lets loose his bow. His fate, and that of all his crew mates are sealed in an instant.
Author Samuel Taylor Coleridge

Production:: (T753752680)

Coleridge's story of an epic sea journey centres around the killing of a harmless albatross. The havoc wreaked by this pointless act of vandalism explodes into one of the most popular and best loved poems in the English language. With an increase in awareness of humanity's relationship to, and dependence upon, the environment this 'poem of the biosphere' is undergoing a popular revival. And no wonder; it is a rollicking good yarn suffused with elements of the gothic and the downright ghostly. Timbers will be shivered!
