A Pinch of Salt
by Peter Griffith
 
A Pinch of Salt is a dramatic retelling of the English folk-
tale which was used by Shakespeare as the basis for his
play King Lear.
 
When she refuses to join her silly sisters in flattering her
father, Princess Cordelia is thrown out of the palace and
has to find her own way in the world.
 
A Pinch of Salt is a story of mad kings and arrogant
princes, of downtrodden servants and blind beggars - a
story full of charm, humour and bitter-sweet fantasy.
