Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book retells a trio of classic German operas: Hansel and Gretel, The Mastersingers of Nuremberg, and Lohengrin, knight of the Swan. The first tale concerns two children lost in a dark forest, and their encounter with a witch who imprisons Hansel and plans to eat Gretel. In the second story, a young apprentice cobbler must win a singing competition to marry the woman he loves, against the rules of the Mastersingers guild, and in the final tale, a mysterious knight arrives in a swan-drawn boat to save a damsel in distress from an evil suitor, before vanishing just as mysteriously. The author's rich and engaging prose invites readers to experience the timeless themes of these enduring works, exploring the timeless power of love, loyalty, and magic, against the backdrop of medieval Germany.
